turner does one for a dana 44 stude, also look at Jegs, summit etc, they have generic conversion kits. My 79 has one on it, on a GM 8.2 10 bolt axle from a 66 chevelle. (needed track width and bolt pattern to match c4 front end, an no, I didn't do the work.)

RQB3263/81   ..ive been looking at JEGS online and yes they have many rear disc brake conversion kits .... I believe my 81 is standard with Dana 60 based on the 5 bolt backing plate gaskets in there catalog picture ...there are many .... has any one completed this with one of JEGS kits ??  If so please educate me and others here on which kit and the process and results.....thanks ....BILL
