The master cylinder would be different as was already mentioned. Also, the power booster is different, a dual diaphram. And a disc/disc proportioning valve is needed to, although you could use the adjustable if you wanted to, but putting a factory type one on would be easier.
The 79, 80, or 81 supplemental service manuals should have the instruction on how to work on the rear discs, since 79 was the first year for them. I know the 80 does, since I have that one.
The owner of this website has the service manuals on CD for a reasonable price, so I suggest you get one of those supplements so you'll have the rear disc servicing information on hand.
