Want to convert to rear discs, but what is the axle pattern?

Hello, im woundering what bolt pattern i have for the brake install, does any know what my 10bolt 8,5" non c-clip axle have? i think i have that one with red circle around...



and i found this kit on ebay, but it says its for A-body cars, but for non- clip axle,, so could it fit my axle too? did the a-body axle have same drum setup like an b-body axle with 9" drums and 5x4,75" pattern?

Or maybe this? for f and x bodys

The Olds/Pontiac pattern circled in blue is the 1959-64 axle. You have the GM/Chevy axle pattern.

Hi again, can someone help me with this, What is the thickness of the backing plate? And what is the distance from the outside of the backing plate to the outside of the axle flange, when the axle is pushed all the way?

look at the pic below, the blue one is what i need to know, the other pic is my axle, somebody knows the dim on the axle with the bolt pattern?

Its hard for me to find out right now cause i cant dissaseble the brakedrume and check it self :/

look on e bay for proportioning valve and backer plates the rest you can get at rock auto. You will have to get the axle hub turn down for the disc to side on.
