Default Rear disc conversion question...

Hey guys, I tried to research on here but I couldn't find anything. I just bought a really clean 93 DX hatch and already have a 93 Si hatch. Well the Si, although it runs and is rust-free, has too many electrical problems i don't want to mess with it. So i planned on just getting rid of it. Im just curious how much work is it to swap out the rear disc to my DX? Thanks in advanced

super easy...put the car on jack stands, take your rear wheels off, disconnect e-brake and hydraulic brake lines, drop the whole trailing arm assemblies out, swap in the SI trailing arms, hook up the e brake and hydraulic lines, swap proportioning valves under the hood from the DX to the SI, bleed the entire system, put your wheels back on...have fun

It's called an A pillar. Knowing the name should help your search on eBay.
