Summit rear disc conversion kit - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Is the axle flange on the 1971-96 caprice/impala the same as the 12 bolt truck flange? I was looking at the summit catalog today and they have a rear disc brake conversion kit that has a 5x5 bolt pattern. The description says:

Disc Brake, Rear, 11.30 in. Diameter Rotors, 1-Piston Calipers, Parking Brake, Chevy, Caprice/Impala, Kit

The instructions also say its for a 10/12 bolt.

So I'm thinking unless the flange is different, this should work. It caught my eye because it is the least expensive kit I've seen to date at $479.00

Here is the link.
