Re: 85 k10 whats the easiest way to convert to disc in rear
Easiest and "good price" are not likely to go together.
There are several kits out there to do this....easier Or you can source the parts seperately, do some machine/fab work and make it yourself...cheaper maybe

Re: 85 k10 whats the easiest way to convert to disc in rear
It depends on what you want to accomplish by converting to rear disc. If you are looking for a simple conversion to a 12" disc and caliper, Capt Fab is a forum vendor that offers a bracket kit. If you want to take that a step further you can upgrade your front calipers to the Wilwood D52 replacements and use the same on the rear.
The next step up from there are the McGaughy conversion that gives you a 13" rear disc. Of course you will need to upgrade the front to match.
