Rear Brakes

I'm new to this forum, but I've owned my 87 B2 (4wd, 2.9, auto transmission) for 2 years. It has 208,000 miles on it and has a bunch o problems.

The main thing I'm wondering about right now, though, is my rear brakes. For the past two years, there has been something going wrong with them at least once a month.

I want to rplace the drums with disks. can i take the rear disks off an explorer ro should i look into some kind of kit?

there is only one company so far that has a kit for thiese types of trucks. but they use caddy calipers and disks for around 400 bucks. it's better to just find a 95 explorer or higher and get yourself that 8.8 with disks come out alot less
