    Also, if I heard right, the brake lines are ran a little different, length or something of the matter....Have to try and find that thread again....

    Been wanting to do a rear disc swap as well, but the funds are running low again....

From what i've heard the swap isn't too difficult just have to reattach the brake lines and e-brake cable. Ask Scott all about it, he's done it a time or two. I'd like to switch my drums out for discs. If I can find a cheap solution for my truck i'll take it.
      oh ok. Does anybody know the ballpark figure for the brake upgrade, without labor cost?

        Depends where you source your parts. If you're buying all new, it gets real expensive real fast. If you're getting most of it from the junkyard, and you're able to use some of the junkyard parts, its somewhat cheaper. I did mine for probably 600 bucks or so, but that involved some parts for free, some real cheap, a used hub bearing, etc.
