I am thinking of a way to convert drum to disc. Going to scour the junk yards for donor car for calipers, brackets, etc. Instead of taking each side off individually, is there any easy way of taking off entire rear suspension assembly for dissassembly at home. I hate the drum setup. just wondering what you think. Also looking for a cheap wheel upgrade, will pre-98 wheels fit on 98 tours, I like the look of them , I think they are 6 spoke. If anyone has any suggestions, I am all ears. laugh laugh

Not worth it. Spend the time and money upgrading the front discs...

Hey Pop,
There is a thread here about the conversion and some very good feedback advising deferring this mod. I have front and rear discs on my 95SE and love it. But rear drums on my 2000SE. I have looked into the change and will hold off. There is some talk about a kit coming out sometime. I am waiting for that. If you MUST do the mod, Baco99 was selling a rear disc setup already to go. He is a good guy, check him out. There may still be an ad in the classified about it. Good luck.
