I have been working on my '71 XR7 for a while now and am finally getting to the rear drums. They are totally rusted up and need replaced. The thing is, I figure that I might as well go for rear discs instead of replacing the whole drum assembly.
Does anyone know if these will fit or have any other suggestions? https://www.amazon.com/1964-77-Brake-Conversion-Slotted-ROTORS/dp/B06XP2SC5V/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=rear+drum+brake+conversion&qid=1585685868&sr=8-1
Thanks!!
That kit is for Camaros and other generic motors products. Unless you have a GM 10 bolt / 12 bolt rear axle it’s not even close to being able to work.
Damn. Know of any options that isn’t the $1500 option on WCCC? or even a full drum replacement? At this point I am grasping at straws.
How about finding an old 1990’s LSC, T-BIRD. COUGAR WIth rear disc as a starting point?? Just a thought

I think the question I would ask is why do you want rear disc brakes? They really aren’t a great upgrade.
