Brakes- Drum to Disc

To help reduce the frequency that we have to answer similar questions on the same topic, I want to do a FAQ directory for suspension. This will serve to enhance the makeover that the FAQ forum is currently undergoing. I have been monitoring the frequently asked questions that are posted in the Suspension Forum and the one that seems to warrant the highest priority is brakes.

I plan to have a resource list for several levels of upgrades. I know some guys want to run drums and upgrade them, but I don't see many requests there so we will skip to the next level for now.

It seems the common place to start for basic improvement is converting front drum to disc. With that in mind please post your resource for drum to disc conversions. I will update my master list as input is received.

Later we will be adding categories for rear disc, big brakes, etc. For now lets stick with the basics. If anyone has previously posted a "How To" or would like to contribute one now, please let me know.
