bach4660 Posted March 1, 2020 Report Share Posted March 1, 2020 I have a '71 B250 van (motorhome) with drum brakes. Looking to change to disc, I see in the manual later years did have disc, then I read that the 78 or 79 control arms would bolt to the 71 frame along with the calipers etc, making it a bolt on from later years. Anyways any info would help. Btw it is a Balboa Motorhome, they were built by Jensen marine (a boat builder in California) from 71 to 74, approx 1100 were made. they used the Dodge B250, as well as GM and Ford conversion vans as the platform.

JBNeal Posted March 2, 2020 Report Share Posted March 2, 2020 As far as I know, the B-vans had a LOT in common mechanically for their entire run...the upgrades for brakes and suspension may be backwards compatible from the 80s all the way up to 2003...
