I used trailblazer rears on my 74. Parking shoes in the hat and all. Somewhere on here is a guide to what you need.

Or hit the Treasure Yard, bolt on a pair of 11" drum assemblies, save a heap of money and eliminate a pile of headache.

95-97 Lincoln Towncar has the mini-drum brake build into the Disc hub.
My GTO Dana60 did not do that. It has 79 T/A rear discs with 82-86 T/A calipers and brackets for old scool Emerge Brake apply. Geez been since 2006 and not needed any maintenance on the rear brakes. |

just completed my S-10 swap...from 1981 oem 4 wheel disc. I did have to add 1/4" spaces to the backing plate to get the 4x4 rotos to line up centered in the abutment bracket. Other than that (minor mod to the spacers as the flange face actually has a locating pilot on it measuring 2.830" so 1 each spacer had to be "opened up" in order to fit flush)

If you have some coin burning a hole in your pocket, Kore3 makes a kit to adapt C5 Corvette parts:
http://www.kore3.com/proddetail.php?prod=10277-01 I bought the calipers from a junkyard, and the rotors/pads separately. Kore3 makes great stuff, the e brake setup is gorgeous. Tobin(the owner?) is also very helpful, I had no problem getting ahold of him over the phone.

On my 76 TA I went to Wilwood for my disc conversion. Four piston calipers, 12.19” rotors. Part 140-7149DR. Had to pull the axles. And go larger than my 15 inch OEM wheels (Rally) but might not have had too. But happy I did for other reasons.
