you would have to use the front steering knuckel ine the back ... but then you would have to do some cazy fab work to keep the same rear suspension.... and you would lose your hand brake ... it can be done.. but it will take alot of fab work ... you might be better off trying to custome fit there rear brakes off another car that has a 5 x 100 bolt pattern ...

if your really thinking about doing this.. i suggest taking a diagram of there rear and front brake assm.. to see how each works and then see if you can go from there ... or if your willing to do or have all that work done...
