Default 06 Silverado Brake swap

I have a 06 Silverado with drum brakes on the rear. and just bought a 99 rear end with disc brakes, my question is with they bolt up and work no problem? Granted I have to bleed the brakes and I would probably put new seals in it but would the brake system work no problem?

The basicly answer to your question.

YES, it will work But there are some minor differences https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...0/#post5119463

Try this, but in reverse... https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...esults-503963/

Thanks, other than slaping in the rear end, do I need a proportioning valve? I want to get all the stuff to install it soon.

This is the first brake swap I've ever done
