The rear my Son is using is a 9 inch with big bearing ends. They supplied Ford Expedition rear brakes (complete setup) with it. If Expeditions came with discs that might be an avenue for you to look at.

ford brakes
I will try to get a picture of the brakes this weekend. It's at the brake guy's now. Thanks for the input about the different brakes. My only problem is I would have to change axles again or redrill drums. The brake guy told me the drum is really weak if you redrill it. Why someone would put a Chevy wheel lug pattern on a Ford axle is beyond me. Messed everything up. Thanks!!

That's how mine is, but it's in a Chevy and was built that way in the first place....not re drilled. The guy probably got a "good deal" on some wheels with the wrong pattern....then found the cheapest way to make them work.

Happens more frequently than you would imagine. Some people just like taking short cuts.
