Rear disk what else do I need? New question on page 5

I'm surprised the calipers cost that much. Here at Car Quest, I can get loaded calipers after the core for $35-ish. And yes, thats the pair.
 
when I rebuilt my 60 I got loaded calipers for $26 per side and that was through the dealership I work at. probably could have saved a dollar or two shopping around but never leaving my desk has its advantages.
 
I just picked all this stuff up at advance.
2 3/4ton rotors $25.94ea.
2 3/4ton calipers $17.77ea.
pads $13.48
ruff stuff bracket $50.00
new seals $7.48ea.
79 chevette front brake hose $13.58ea.
for the grand total of $193.02

yea, didn't you know? (My bad)

I also had to pick up new banjo bolts.$8.00
pins came with the calipers and I have plenty of fluid.
All have have left to do to mine is hook up my brake hoses to the hard lines.
 
Well my disc swap is done. The one thing I didn't think about was the studs. I need longer studs. The part # for the wheel studs is 641-2179 from NAPA. I did drive it around the parking lot and if I slammed on the brakes the rears would lock up first. But I think I'll be ok since it's a trail rig only.
