I love that article but have a question...what can we 40 owners do for converting from Lockheed to bendix hardware as is the type shown in that article...would it be simple as finding a donor with the backing plates?...would they bolt on?...here's a reach, anyone convert to rear discs yet via some sort of tophats on the hub?!

I'd love some sort of self adjusting going on back there without having to swap out the whole rear axle!

If you do this run longer studs and you can easily add common as dirt Ranger/Explorer alloy rims... You can do the same on the front, very common on Sweptlines (61-71) as they run swedged front drums with non-swedged rear drums... And no more replacing reverse thread wheel bolts when the tire shop breaks one or more because they don't listen to you.
