Rear Disc Brake Conversion
I have a '72 C-10 that has drum brakes on the rear. I am getting ready to put a limited slip differential and new ring gear and pinion in the rear end and thought about adding rear disc brakes. Can anyone tell me what it takes to do this conversion? Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Rear Disc Brake Conversion
I think there is a thread in the 67-72 Message board about someone designing some brackets for rear disc brakes.
