Disc Brake rear end conv?

Is it easier to do a disc brake conversion on my existing rear end or should I try to find a factory disc rear. If so which one. I think the ambulence package had discs on the rear but not sure.

IMHO - you will not go wrong if you get the rear disc kit from either TSM or Blackbirds.
