94 PAU - rear disk brakes

I have a 94 PA Ultra with rear drum brakes. I discovered that disk brakes were used on 95 and above. Does anyone know if I can convert using 95 parts? If so what parts would need to be replaced or recalibrated?

No ideas on this I guess?!? Does anyone know of another message board that may have info on this (though I can't imagine a message board better the AF)

Disc brakes on '95+ is news to me. I thought they started offering disc brakes in '97 when they changed the model design.

My mistake. kaspr and pachrome are absolutely correct. 97 was the first year. Same question would apply though, could an acceptably safe conversion be performed using parts from a 97 on my 94?

GSteven,

Have you found anything out further on this? I'm curious about converting rear drum to disc brakes, too.

rear disk brakes on PA

No, I pretty much ran into a dead end and have not had any time to research it further. I am still extremely interested, so if anyone has any ideas please post.
