Question about rear ends
I have a 1982 Trans Am, Recaro Edition. It is supposed to have the Ws6 option, but it has rear drums. It is to my understanding this frequently occurred due to a hardware shortage. I was wondering what all would entail swapping the drums to disc brakes? What all parts are needed for the changeover?
