Hey evfan,

Yupz, a bit of work though. Not 100% sure but if I am not mistaken the disk brake assembly does fit onto a drum brake axle (allthough must people swap the entire axle since the drum brake axle doesn't fit the GTS LSD and it saves ALOT of work).

For the rest of the work I'm abit fuzzy but basically what you also need to do is install a hard brake line from the front to the back, and you need to alter some stuff on the master brake cylinder (I believe for drumbrakes they don't have one of those control valve thingies, so that bit needs to be swapped out). Also I believe the handbrake assembly is different so you will need to replace the cables.
Easiest is just to source the parts you need from a GTS and it should be a bolt on replace. Atleast thats what I've been told/have read. I've never actually done this Big Grin

Greetz,
