Drum Brake to Disc Brake Conversion

[455BuickBeast]

Hello all,

I just recently purchased a 76' Buick Riviera and am wanting to customize it. I noticed after I bought the car that the rear brakes are drum brakes and that they need to be changed to disc. I have tried looking through numerous sites for a conversion kit for my car and there doesn't seem to be any for my specific year and model. I also noticed that the 72' Buick Skylark uses drum brakes also and has a conversion kit to disc brakes. I would like to get this conversion kit and install it on my care but I can't find the specs on the brake set up for either car. Has anyone done a conversion like this, or an an actual conversion with a Skylark or Riviera?

Any help is greatly appreciated thank you.

The rear drums are quite adequately engineered.

Some high performance shoes would probably give an equal performance upgrade.
