THEY USE YOUR EXISTING a body drum brake spindles but you remove the drum from the hub, reuse the hub use the custom brackets and get some S10 4wd rotors( there the hat rotor style)re drill them with the template supplied,use S10 2wd calipers and pads, and caprice brake hoses.simple and cheap! parts only cost 90.00 for the calipers, pads,and rotors.

Have you tried this conversion?  Or has any one else on this board done it?  It sounds like a good cheap way to do it.   :dontknow:

I really need to change mine to disc and any help would be great.
