Disk brake question????
Has any one put disk brakes on a Small drum wire wheel rear end? They only list disks for large drum wire wheels. Will they fit on a small drum with wire wheels rear end? Thanks Dan

Weren't all 26-27 T' s large drum? The Sure Stop disk brakes use a rotor that is a combination rotor and parking brake drum. Hence the disk brake kit for 26-27 wire wheels is large drum (I believe).

My kit fits a 26 T small drum wood wheels (Ruckstell) from Bill Tharp, Colorado disk brakes which became Texas T disk brakes or Sure Stop disk brakes.
