Unhappy Rear Disc Brake Conversion problem...

I have a 99 I4, with rear drums and am currently going for the rear disc conversion. I already have new rotors and pads but need to know if I can reuse the drum's mechanical parts( of course not the shoes). Or will I need to replace everything? Please help!!

Oh, I have already tried search but couldn't find anything...

are you kidding? disk brakes use a large piston (at least one) to squeeze a rotor, the piston is located inside a caliper and the caliper is held to the knuckle by something....


More importantly, the proportioning valve is not the same.... and the abs system uses a load senser in addition to a pv.
