Are drum brake beams the same as disc brake beams ? can I put the disc brake set up on my drum brake beam?
Thanks

No difference in the beams, but you do need disc mount spindles to attach your calipers to.  ;) , If you dont already have them

yup, what he said. you need disc brake spindles to run disc brakes. check the bottom of this list...

tho, i'd suggest getting lowered disc spindles for disc brakes. then get some adjusters in your beam and you can drop the nose to the height you like.
