Have you considered just buying a conversion kit? they're surprisingly cheap

heres the one from dax for example:

DAXR064DC Rear Drum to Disc conversion (pair) £ 27.25

i have a complete disc axle, thats not the problem, i have.
the problem is my uprights wich are luegeo are for drum hubs so the calipers fowl on the uprights, so rather than change the uprights it will be easier for me to change to drums on the rear

Talk to Luego, they will probably swap if they are still in "as new" condition.
At least give Ben a ring and see what he has to say.

It may only cost you the postage.
