Converting rear drums to disk

[NateRW21]

Anyone done it? I've wanted to do it for some time now with all factory parts, but I'm pretty hesitant to buy the parts and not know if it's do-able.

Can anyone tell me if there would be any reason why I couldn't retrofit 99-up rear disk to my 98 F-150 w/ 8.8 axle?

Not sure about 99 to 98 compatability but these guys sell a kit that works.

I know a guy who did it to his 98 lifted f150 4x4.

if you're going to go through all this hassle, why not just buy a used 9.75 that already has disc brakes? The axle will be much stronger, and you'll probably come out about the same/less in price.
