Default disc brakes?

was wondering how and if disc brakes could be installed on a 84 truck on the rear? I would like to all four wheels to stop instead of just the front. Plus drum brakes are a pain to change. and help would be much obliged.

Yes it can be done with a conversion kit.
I was looking into it myself a while back, but because I take my workvan home and reinterpret drive it that much I changed my mind.

I like Oldsmobile, but I am not a fan of the drum brake design from Mr. Olds.
It just doesn't work as well.
