91 Dodge brakes

I have a 3/4 ton 91 Dodge Cummins 4/4 pickup. My question. Is there a replacement brake disc that will go on between the wheel and tire? Instead of going on inside of the hub. On this old dodge you have to take the wheel bearings apart. Then drive the studs out to get the disc off to true them or replace. Rear ones are made the same. Hoping someone has figured this out. Thanks Vic
 
You're stuck with what ya got.

A good upgrade while you have the wheel studs out is to swap the 1/2" ones for some 9/16" pieces.

If you want to get closer to peeling your face off the windshield, when you do the rear, swap in some 1-ton brake shoes and 1-ton Chevy wheel cylinders. The 3/4-tons only came with 2 1/2 inch shoes in a 3 inch drum, the 1-tons had 3 inch shoes to match.

Raybestos 413PG/ NAPA TG358 shoes
Raybestos WC36057/WC36058 cylinders
 
I put the wider brake shoes in my 1992 Dodge Cummins 4WD truck. I didn't need to go to Chevy for bigger wheel cylinders. They were available with Dodge part #s. The original 2.5" brakes used 7/8" bore wheel cylinders. The 3" brakes use 1 1/8" bore wheel cylinders. RAYBESTOS Part # WC36057, BENDIX Part # 33207, WAGNER Part # WC35326, etc.
 
Thanks guy's Going to take it to a good brake shop and tell them about the 3 inch rear brakes and bigger cylinders. Vic
