Rear Drum to Disc Conversion kit questions.

[454SSguy]

I'm probably gonna end up making some brackets for the calipers, but If I find some that will work like Kev was talkin about I'll be sure and post up part numbers and everything.

What about the 6 lug guys? I have a 90 k1500 that eventually I am putting 35s on and I tow with it time and time again to tow my s10. I'd like better braking for both the bigger tires and towing. Obviously the impala rotors wont work for us 6 lug guys. But I know theres gotta be a conversion on the cheap since in the s10 world guys swap to the fbody rear brakes.

FYI, all of the 'summit' brand disc kits are just SSBC anyway.

I got the Summit rear disc kit for my Monte and SSBC was stamped on the calipers. And the kit was half the price of SSBC one. Woot!
