Disc brake Upgrade

I have a 1962 F100 4X4. I was wondering if anyone has ever upgraded the front drum brakes to disc brakes on this type of axle? I know there are a lot of kits for 2 wheel drive but not 4 wheel drive. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Your best bet would be to ask this in the Offroad and 4X4 forum. they should be able to help you identify the front axle and what conversions kits are available for it.
If not, identify your axle and search a few 4x4 sites on the net for help. I know there is a way for you even if you have to upgrade to a newer axle.

Thanks. I thought about posting it on the 4X4 forum but I thought I would try here first.
