Rear Disc conversion kits?

Sorry, one more ??? - Does anyone make rear disc conversions for the 6 lug 4x4 12 bolt rear end?

I am trying to get my upgrades in order so I can start planning them accordingly.

Thanks!

Is alot of the stuff we do to our trucks really necessary? Most people would think Air Conditioning in a vehicle is a necessity. I lived in Phoenix for 40 years and alot of them were without air in my truck. Didn't like it but I seemed to have survived ok. Ill tell you what, It sure is nice to have those upgrades though.
