A big mopar man in my neck of the woods told me about a set up, Where you can take the brake calipers, rotors, brackets, and emergency brake set up and adapt it to work on a 8 3/4 cuda that does change your back spacing. Now I'm curious so I'm going to try it but I was curious if anyone else had heard of this???

If the rotors fit on the factory axle flange it would not change back spacing by more than 1/4" max , the question is if the axle housing end flange & the axle flange is the same distance apart , if not you may have to shim the caliper mount to line up with the disc correctly. You may need larger diameter wheels to clear the calipers too .
Let us know what you learn this could be a really workable rear disc swap .

Yeah I didn't see it on here at all but this guy told me it. I haven't been able to do much so far but winter is coming and body work is going to slow to how much cold I can stand lol
