Rear Disc conversion kits? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Sorry, one more ??? - Does anyone make rear disc conversions for the 6 lug 4x4 12 bolt rear end?

I am trying to get my upgrades in order so I can start planning them accordingly.

Thanks!

is disc in the rear really necessary though?

Is alot of the stuff we do to our trucks really necessary? Most people would think Air Conditioning in a vehicle is a necessity. I lived in Phoenix for 40 years and alot of them were without air in my truck. Didn't like it but I seemed to have survived ok. Ill tell you what, It sure is nice to have those upgrades though.
