alot more than just swapping them ova if thats what your wondering. you need to be Scanas confident in your swap and it needs to be dead right, or you can die.... they have duo servo drum arangement on them, when there working well they work great i would just stick with what you have.

that said if there is something better out there im all ears, mud runnig with drums does suck must admit. think it was on this forum someone has done a commonwhore rear caliper swap
