You sure can, this topic has been covered many times if you search

Don't expect any performance gains what so ever, plus you will be adding weight

It's not the trailing arms, its the added mass of the calipers plus rotors. People who are looking for extreme weight saving will go for the HF rear drums due to their material. I for one hate changing drum brakes more than head gaskets, so I switched to discs. Oh, and they look better behind the wheel.

I went there
