Rear disc brake conversion
Ive been interested in converting to rear discs for a while since the ole drums get pretty hot during braking while pulling my boat and the pedal gets very soft and Im finally getting serious about it and I found a site that sells them. If anyone else wants to look into it, the company is called TSM. I just ordered mine. Its 300 bucks for a set and 120 for calibers without parking brake. Honestly, I spent money on new cables for my parking brakes 2 years ago and I havent used them once. But if you did want calibers with a parking brake they offer them for 300 bucks.

8.8 rear, you can find rear disk set ups from a mustang. You will need to get everything from the flange on, also you will have to convert from steel lines to flex to the calipers.

I agree thats a little steep but you could buy the calibers somewhere else if you were a law abiding citizen that was looking for a cheaper bolt on with parking brake as I honestly have to admit that Im not. I tend to be an Outlaw by nature on laws that didnt need to be made in the first place.

The calibers might fit but the rotors have a different bolt pattern. So if you want to stick with same wheels you need a conversion kit.
