Welcome to the world of old Dodge trucks! You can't just open a catalog and your wallet to get what you want.
That said, the stock brakes in good condition are fine for commuting and light hauling. What's your goal?
BTW, the 12" brakes are for 8 lug rear ends only. The hub is almost 4.5" in diameter, no room for the small lug pattern, even the 5*5.5" pattern doesn't clear.

I am interested in a caliper bracket as well. Our trucks share the 1.25 rotor width with the viper front rotor. Doesn't seem it would be too hard to fashion a bracket to fit. Google "Industrial chassis inc" They have a bracket to mount the D52 caliper to our spindles.

Lol Hit home then scroll down until you get to the adapters. It actually has some good info.
