Hello

No, rear disc brakes use a different wheel bearing.

I will answer to my question :D
So today i was bored and went to my garage ...
compared rotor hub and drum hub and whoalaaa they are exactly same...
except drum hub did not have holes for rotor mounts/screws... but its fine works good without it ...
already installed it and works just fine ....

The offset is different. The bearing for the rear drum either puts the face of the hub in or out a little further, I can't remember which way it went. But I do remember comparing them and they are different. It's also the reason guys used to use the scarebird conversion bracket to do rear disc swaps.
