is it possible to covert the rear drum to disk brakes ?

[vibebob]

just curious if this is possible ? if so, what all would be involved ? would there be any real benefit ?bobI did a search (drum to disk) and didn't find anything

This has been extensively discussed before.Yes, anything CAN be done with enough money. But the cost would be significant, and there is NO major benefit or reason for doing it.

Sorry to bring back an old thread like this, but could you site one or two " extensively discussed " threads? I'd love to read them. This is the only one I can find. Thanks!

There is a Gentleman on Matrixowners.com that has done it to his TRIX.. he found a Donor Car at a scrapyard and did it himself in 1 day.. it is possible.. looks really good.. and he says the braking has significantly improved.. go there and ask questions

I think it would be more for appearance then performance. At least from my stand point. Or if I needed a big heavy brake rotor system for racing, which I don't.
