disc brakes

On my 75 F100 4x4 I have drums all the way around. Is there another year ford that has disc brakes up front that will bolt up to my truck?

disc brakes

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 01-Apr-02 AT 07:29 PM (EST)]My 2WD 1975 SuperCab has disc brakes--I always assumed they were stock. My 1973 Shop Manual indicates you could get disc brakes on the 2WD models of the F100, F250 & F350. Good luck.

EDIT: And none of this helps you a bit does it? I don't know the answer to your question & apologize for not reading it more carefully in the first place.
