WOW!
It worked! Thank you so much for the tip on DIR-853 @Lucky1
I'll try to battle-test it in the coming days and if everything goes well I'll report back.
Awesome!
Thank you again and thanks to @kar200! 
As I said, I'll be setting up this router to be used again (with openwrt) soon then I'll report back how the tests are going. If they go well we can add support for DIR-1360 too.
Based all on @Lucky1's work 
Good to see it is working. By the way if you need to upgrade each time to a different DIR-853 A3 image (snapshot for example) you can do it directly from the web interface or using the sysupgrade tool.

The 2.4 GHz radio doesn't seem to work on that firmware. Openwrt recognizes that it exists, but the router's light indicator remains off, and no 2.4GHz signal gets broadcasted.
I don't have any dlink router's with DBDC
they used to be picky & you had to manually change things
but I would expect v22 & master to fixed by now
do try a factory reset
maybe other can say if the DBDC radio works out of the box on the DIR-583 models atm ?
Default 2.4ghz antenna configuration doesn't work.
Sorted it out by switching to legacy mode

Sorry to bring back this dead topic, but would you be able to make the 1360 files available again with the changed header so I can try to install them on my Router, I'm experiencing connection problems, I believe I can solve them when I switch to openwrt. as I have done in the past with other devices.
The wetransfer files are dead.
