Replacing drum brakes with disc

Does someone have a link to a site that has disk brakes that I can replace my rear drum brakes with? I thought I saw it on here one day but didn't save the link. (dumb, dumb, dumb)

I used the TSM conversion kit. I really like them - it made a huge difference for me. I never liked drums I always found disc brakes easier to maintain.

I did not have the e brake either. It was quite a bit more $$ and I could not remember the last time I used it. So far I am glad I went with TSM - they work great.

Anyone have to put that adjustable proportioning valve on their setup?
