the only 2 new things you will need to swap one to another is a complete rear end iincluding a diff with the right ratio to suit your front. and a new master cylinder as they have a different bore size. or im pretty sure the drum centre will fit into a disc housing but you need all the axles or the like.
but otherwise just fit and go why didnt i do this years ago.

can just change the bush on the panhard but it so much better to drive
