Drum to disc on back?

[bigma_18]

I have the complete disc set up off of an older Z28 from a junk yard. My question is how hard will it be to change my rear drums to discs using this? Has anyone else done this in their driveway?

Re: Drum to disc on back?

that sucks.. I was looking for the rear axles till someone told me some axles were longer and my rear was too short.. I do know that you can use the brackets to put rotors on your rear.. just cant use the axles... But I may be wrong, I dont know what yrs people were talking about... still have the hardware from the brake system, I believe you can just use that instead of the axles themselves.. Someone correct me if Im wrong, Do a search on rear brake conversion. I also think there is a sticky on the brake threds.. it'll tell you more.

i dont see a sticky
but from what i know it would probably just be easier to swap the whole rear end.
as long as it came off a 4th gen camaro

Easier, no. Swapping out the brakes is pretty easy except for the e-brake cable. Most people do the whole swap to get other goodies too.
