They always say that a picture is worth a thousand words .....

Everything is much clearer now.

Basically, I recently bought an unfinished project and it came with calipers. I need to ask which model of car they came from.

I also bought a stripped down sierra a year or so ago which came with the drum brakes.

So I pretty much have everything for the drum setup and a set of rear calipers, so I was just trying to figure out if I could easily move directly to the rear discs.

I guess all I really need to do is order the adapter plates and some new discs and hopefully everything should be fine

Not too sure exactly what you mean about hitting the uprights though .... in the picture the calipers seem to be well clear. I guess with the disc uprights the caliper is much closer to the upright ..... is that what you mean?

I figure the easiest and most flexible option is to make the drum uprights and use the adapter.

Thanks for all your help
