Re: Drum to disc swap

Many ways to do this swap, but above all, the 'Search' function on this site is your friend!

Try the 'vendor's marketplace', or the 'suspension marketplace' here in the suspension section. I don't want to leave anyone out, but Brother's, CPP, GMC Pauls, SOKY Classics, LMC and MANY others have parts to do this swap. So does your local wrecking yard in combination with AutoZone, O'Reilly's, NAPA or wherever you shop for parts.

X2 on this link. You don't have to buy new parts to do it. However I would replace ball joints and tie rod ends. Maybe bearing and brake pads as well.
You can indeed find trucks being parted out on Craigslist for a complete K member assembly for less the $300. I just found one today I will be picking up tomorrow for my 65.
