Re: disc brake conversion
just put in a later set of axles, frt and rear..frt should bolt in and on the rear you have to move the spring perches on the axle. put in p/s at the same time. cheapest way to do it

Re: disc brake conversion
Agreed, on the front differentials with the drum brakes it would be a lot easier to just grab a 10bolt or Dana 44 out of a 70's half ton.

Re: disc brake conversion
Yep, just get yourself a pair of differentials from a '73-'87 K10. And get the complete braking system as well as the power steering box from the same.
