RE: Rear Drum to Disc Conversion
I havent seen one with reardisks... I dont know if anyone has ever done a rear disk conversion on anything, but I helped my father do a conversion on his older silverado... it was a huge pain. he had to get a kit specificly for it so the E-brake could be omitted... (not sure why we could of just not hooked it up...)

some new daks have rear discs, but there not too common. One would think that the tow package or laramie option would include them. I'm sure one could buy the system from dodge and it would bolt right up..... for mucho dinero. drums are easier to power brake, though!

Yeah... I gotta say I love the way my mustangs baer big brake kit looks through the wheels... I want that kit on my truck. 15 inch reardrilled/slotted rotors and 3 piston calipers. I dont think the fronts would fit on my truck though... would need to get a set of 18's or 20's.

RE: Rear Drum to Disc Conversion
The only thing is, there is 4 wheel anti-lock brakes..
There is no 4 wheel DISC brakes. Trust me... I spent the better part of 3 months perfecting the truck I wanted, then I ordered, there was no four-wheel disc brakes.... 4-wheel anti-lock.... yes. I just checked Dodge's website, and the specs say 2 wheel disc 2 wheel drums..
There. End of story.
