Can anyone give me an idea on how much this would cost? I want to replace my limited slip drum brake rear with a posi disc brake rear.

 

StCr19, you could possibly make the change in one weekend. The hardest part will be the e-brake cables. There are 3 bolts (2 going to the trailing arms and 1 that goes to the cross bar) that really hold the rearend to the frame. Then there are the 2 shock bolts and the drive shaft bolts (4).

The axle swap itself is easy; the brake change sometimes isn't. The calipers might need a rebuild. If you have the parts from the years that require the master cylinder to be changed, expect a big headache while trying to bleed the new master cylinder.
