Hey so I have a 79 gmc half ton with 5 x 4 3/4 bolt pattern all the way around with a 12 bolt rear end and I was wondering what vehicles would allow for a rear disc swap??

couldn't say for sure that is just what it is. I also think it may be a difference between canadian and american vehicles

I'd recheck that...Unless it's been redrilled or subframed (as we found on another member's truck) it will be 5x5.
