Yes!!! You will not have any control over the differences between the front %26amp; rear brakes otherwise. Different distances from the master, etc can cause the rear tires to lock up when you brake.

you better put one in if you don't want the back end slidding every time you hit the brakes :)
Yes you should . The front disc will grab a lot more then the old drums . Could get wild .
