Hi. I would like to know if it is possible to convert the rear drum brakes to disc brakes.
Yes
If so, what is needed,(i would be putting aftermakert parts),
You need: e-brake assemblies, rotors, calipers, brake lines. The only thing available aftermarket are rotors and stainless steel brake lines.
what kind of work is involved ect.
The most difficult part of the swap is removing/installing the hub bearing assemblies, converting the e-brake cable to fit, and bleeding the air out of the brake lines after the calipers are installed.
Would the handbrake still work?
Yes
Is there anything important I should know about this?
Set a whole day aside to do this.
Here are some pics to assist you with the install:
