im sure someone has done the rear drum to disc conversion... so how much did it cost, how long did it take, what all did you need? thanks

There's a write up around here somewhere do0d. You need the rear discs, calipers, lines, and the parking brake cables too. I think it should take a day if you take your time. You end up running stuff under the floorboards to the eBrake handle.
I'll be doing it someday too.

I was going to ask about this myself. I have a GS parts car with rear disc, so I have everything I need. I was going to just swap all the rear axle stuff and E brake cables. Is it that easy???? or is there any changes on the master cylinder or proportioning(sp) valves??? anything else I should know?? TIA
I figured since I have all spare axle parts from my parts car that I would powder coat everything and still won't have much down time.:thumbsup

I believe that if you do a search on drum to disk conversion you will find everything you need to know plus some. I plan on also doing this next year after the body mods. You will probably see my name tagged on a bunch of posts about it when I'm ready to do it. Good luck man.

Yeah, it's not too bad. The cables are the toughest part like metioned above.
