RE: 5 lug convertion ?
It is not as bad as it sounds. And believe it or not buying the $2300 Motorsport kit is the way to go in my opinion. I wish I had done that the first time. (unless your ok with junk yard rotors, pads, lines, axles,and what not) I bought used spindles with calipers, ended up buying new calipers, lines, rotors, new master, booster, and so forth. By the time I was done, I was close enough (for me) tohave ponied up the extra cash for the kit, and it would have saved alot of effort. And I stayed drum in the back.
Now I am switching to rear disc (baer all the way around) It would have been cheaper in the long run to buy a nice kit from the get go. Just my .02
Although some people are ok with junk yard parts and sn95 brakes on their car. I ended up not being happy with the performance.
