Seville Rear Disc Swap - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

HEY GUYS! I HAVE A CHANCE TO PICK UP A '79 CADDY SEVILLE REAR END WITH THE DISC BRAKE SETUP, AND WAS WONDERING IF I CAN ADAPT THIS TO MY '71 C-10 2WD REAR. THEY BOTH HAVE THE 5 ON 5 PATTERN, AND LOOKS LIKE IT MIGHT BE A FAIRLY STRAIGHT FORWARD SWAP. ANY INFO, AND THOUGHTS WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
THANKS, MIKE

yup! bolt them on. you will need a disc-disc master cylinder too.

If there anything like my 77 Seville set up, you will have to redrill the backing plate/mounting plate bolt patten and you will need to turn down the axle flange to fit into the hats. Mine is the 12" vented setup

I forgot about the flanges. Yes, you might have to turn them down.

I FIGURED AS MUCH. BUT I HAVE TO PULL THE AXLES TO MOUNT EVERYTHING ANYWAY, SO I'LL SEND THEM OUT WHILE I'M MOUNTING THE BACKING PLATES, ETC.
