Looking for rear disc brake set-up, does anybody here on the site have the set-up? if so what do you think of it? is it hard to install? is it pricey?

Kern Dog

I don't know. What axle is in it?
MORE info is needed. There are several vendors that make rear disc brake kits, and who knows WHAT axle you have.

i have an 8.34, i did not know type of axle would be an issue? I just had the rear end gone through, so i'm guessing it would have to come back apart to determine type of axle.

you can get a donor original parts from an Imperial of same years.

otherwise, SSBC, Wilwood... yes they offer kits

Thanks Nacho, that i did not know.... is there any other years that are compatible?

Parts for that Imperial disc are hard to come by.

There are many disc conversions available for the 8 3/4", look for one that uses a caliper with a built-in parking brake rather than a separate drum brake. Doctor Diff offers one:

Pardon me but my karma just ran over your dogma.
