Post How to rear disc conversion
so i currently dont have pics but will update later with pics

first you contact me for info on gb
then

jack up car

to make easier may need to remove rear springs

take off back wheels

loosen ebrake on ebrake handle


remove drums

remove ebrake

remove hub

install bracket to hub, reinstall hub with bracket

install rotor

install caliper/pads

install ebrake cable

replace brake lines with ss lines included

bleed brakes

reinstall springs if removed

reinstall wheels

lower

and go for break in period


usually i recommend doing front brakes and lines along with this, i did and it is now amazing
