Default REAR brake drum to disc conversion X3 accent

HEy! I searched and studied a lot of possibilities to convert rear drum brakes to discs on my 1996 X3 hyundai excel (accent), and i came to this question:

EXACTLY how different are rear susp. arms of X3 and LC ? why wouldnt be possible to swap discs from LC to X3? What problems (custom work) would i have to deal with? let me say i'm not a newbie regarding car "tweaking" betaswap+m62, and that i have access to a local mechanic.
any useful info??
thanks
Igor

p.s.: i see DREROB is putting/has put Tibby (pre '01) rear brakes on his LC,... why not put it on X3 also?

would it be easier to SWAP also the rear control arms? how are LC and X3 rear control arms compared one to another, regarding length and mounting holes? With swapping the whole thing you would get rid of mounting problems on the hub side, but how is it with fixing the swapped LC control arms to the X3 chassy?
