Default finally ordered these for my car :)

-rear disc brake conversion

got them off ebay for $150, a steal IMO. And it came complete with everything but the proportioning valve.

I've been looking for a disc brake setup for over a year and most of them are over double this price or have rusted components, especially the rotors.

I haven't received them yet, but the trailing arms look very good and the rotors, the first non rusted set I've seen on ebay lol.

I did order some new OEM trailing arm bushings, but I can't wait

And if anyone is wondering, I bought my car with about 95k on the odometer. Now it's at 152k and the rear brakes have not been replaced once, so it's time to change the pads. So I figured this is a good deal overall for me to just get the disc setup.

Will definitely get pics up after I get them installed

Nice find. I picked up mine for $100, but with rusted rotors, and deteriorated bushings. All of which will be replaced eventually and prior to install.

Next thing to get (if you don't already have them) are some rims to show those rear discs!
