How interchangeable are the axles from GMT800 to GMT400? Widths, spring spacing, shock mounts, park brake cables?
Rear discs don't interest me all that much. Mostly, rear-disc conversions are a lot of effort and expense for no real benefit. Front discs are another story. I've converted a few cars from front drum to front disc, one of them started with a single-circuit master cylinder which also got upgraded.
HOWEVER, in that I still haven't managed to tear apart my rear drums on the K2500 10.5" rear for inspection of the shoes, I guess the easier servicing of rear discs could be an advantage on those (full float, drums "riveted" to the hubs using the lug studs) axles.
