The swap from drum to disc isn't direct. You'll need to modify the axle flanges or buy a kit from Ed Miller. You'll also need a combination valve and e-brake cables. Check the following FAQ for more info about the swap:Originally Posted by camaro391z

Just swap the entire rear end. WAY easier, free & a direct bolt-in.
