rear disc brakes for LS

I have a 2005 LS manual 2-door with the sport package and 16" rims.

One thing I have always hated is the rear drum brakes.


Would it be possible to convert to the SS rear disc setup?

Does anyone make a conversion kit?

well you would have to get both front and back axles from an ss and all the brake parts fro front and back to make it work, it would be cheaper to buy the conversion kit that you can find on lots of vendors but its big brake only and you will need 17 inch wheels at a minumum to clear the big brakes
