Rear disc or drum?
I have a '93 GXE and I wasn't sure if my car has rear disc or drum brakes, I'm thinking about replacing them. If you guys have any idea, help would be appreciated.

If you have ABS, you have discs in the back. If you don't have ABS, you have drums.

BTW, it only takes about 10 seconds to look back there and look next time you're getting in/out of the car.

How Hard would it be to do a Drum to Disc?
Lets hope it is not the difficult.

Repeat after me "I will read all of the stickies from begining to end"

there is a writeup on 4dsc about it IIRC

pretty straighforward though.
Swap complete strut assembly with spindle and all
