Rear drums to discs

Hi does anyone know if the whole rear disc kit assembly from a 2000 f150 with the 8.8 inch axle will fit my 94 f150 wit the same axle? I know the discs dont fit because of the bolt pattern but i know bronco graveyard has discs for a conversion kit with the right bolt patter. Would this work at all?? Other than the bolt pattern is their anything else that would be different between the two trucks that i would have to deal with? Thanks in advance!!

Long as the kit you got has an e-brake setup on it as well..there are cheaper ways to do that swap too just by piecing stuff together...if you do that do a write up with lots of pics I've been wantin to do that to my truck....

well the thing is i cant piece things together because i dont know what will fit. THe 2000 f150 is nearly the same except for the bolt patern so i thought that would be my best guess.

I don't think 2000 F150's had the 8.8 anymore. I think the redesign in 97 brought the 9.75" rear.

You could track down a disc rear exloder and take the parts off of it for your swap since the axle is too narrow.
