the drum to disc conversion is easy
all you need is the caliper/bracket/brake line/backing plate
jack up car removed old stuff, going to have to take off the hub to get the backing plate off
on the disc backing plate just use a drill bit and bore out the hole a little bigger so the stock ebrake cable will fit down in it,
put the disc backing plate on then remote hub, hook up ebrake cable put on rotor, bolt on caliper, connect brake line that shouldof came with caliper, and repeat on other side and your down
i know one of the write up tells you to cut a slot in the ebrake "holder" on the disc backing plate and use a clamp to make sure its tight, but i found that just boring the hole for the cable to slide down into, worked just as good, and havent had any problems
