10 Bolt Rear Disc Brake Conversion

[1996*GMC*SHORTBED]

What year(s) new body style pick-ups had rear disc brakes, and could those parts be retro-fitted to an OBS 10-bolt rear? Anyone ever done this? Thanks

SSBC makes a few 10 bolt disc kits for the GMT400 application.

I checked their site and couldn't find a rear conversion. Can you provide a link?
