Do they make a complete drum to disc conversion for the '98's (rear)?

SSBC is the ONLY co. that makes a specifically designed rear disc conversion, with rotors & calipers that matches the their front big brake kits. Most, if not all other manufacturer's rear disc kits are made up of off the shelf G.M. Camaro/Caddilac/S-10 parts.
Wilwood may be the exception, but IIRC those are G.M. parts, too.
With a rear kit designed to match the fronts, it would seem to me that the performance of a complete system would be more consistant in preformance & predictability. The others, whether home-built, or aftermarket, while they may work just fine, would always have a small question mark behind them in my mind.
While the brake systems from SSBC are in the upper price range, I do believe that you get what you pay for. Brakes are no place to cheap-out.

To add to that, I talked to my guy at SSBC about the built in parking brake in the calipers and was told that they are NOT a ratcheting type system like mentioned in the other thread. I have a request into the Tech department to see if I can get some actual specs on them, but SSBC designs and manufactures their own calipers and from what I was told, like stated above, they are not like any other calipers of their kind for this type of upgrade.

However, they do not at this time offer anything that would have the parking brake inside the hub of the caliper.

A driveshaft mounted E-brake , such as used on Hot Rods, could be a solution.

This is a fact. I have to just thank you for the information as I am sure like many others I am still learning when it comes to the conversion kits! So thank you for your help helping EVERYONE understand more about them!

No problem. That's what this forum is for. So many here have helped me with my trucks. Neither would be what they are without the info that I've found here. What goes around comes around!

Ok guys and gals, as much as I hate to do it, and I was hoping I could do without it, but I have had to put a time limit on this sale. This sale will run for the nest 10 days, once that time is up I will introduce the regular forum member discount which will run all the time.

This sale is now closed. Thank you to those who expressed an interest in this promotion as well as those who placed orders. Stay tuned for future deals on SSBC Kits & Parts.
