Wouldn't I also have to change axles or do the make a bracket for the calipers...
$4000 is a lot to convert. I converted my tri axle I beam from surge drum to EOH disc for about $1600 and that included the brake controller for the truck. The disc brake kits for a 3500# axle are only ~$250 per axle and rarely do you need all three axles with brakes. Mine is setup with two of the three axles. The EOH pump is ~$600. I guess if you are going to pay someone to do the work then it might be $4000 but it's a pretty simple job. Did my whole conversion in about 10 hours!
