get a kit from ssbc.

I did that swap back in about 83or 84, and about a year after I swapped the versailles rearend in, the driver side caliper locked and I smelled something burning......... stopped the car and the rotor was smoking and glowing cherry red! Replacement parts were hard to get then only about 8 years after they were new.

You do get a proper width 9" rearend with the swap, but its not worth it today with ssbc,baer, and willwood options out there.
