Depends on your goal with the car, I suppose. Stop or go? 

Stop: The front brakes do most of the work. The back brakes don't wear 
out often. When the brake shoes need replacing, if you have the heavy 
duty wheel puller the drums will remove, and the removal process will 
give you an aerobic exercise session at the same time. ;-)

Swapping to front discs may be enough to satify your stop needs.

GO: There's a new Moser60 rear available, by the way, in case Rapid HIGH 
Acceleration is your desire; You could put the $639.95 toward that, or 
something like it.

Or use the existing 8.75, as it is strong enough for a lot of typical 
applications.
