Easiest way is to just buy another rearend with disk brakes already on it and swap the entire thing in your car. Maybe you can get a better gear ratio than what you already have too. Otherwise, you can buy all of the rear brake pieces and modify your current rearend to accept them. I don't know how to do this process as I replaced the rear end in my car...3 times! lol

Souseless is correct, the PBR's are the way to go--89-92, IIRC. Should you be unfamiliar with PBR's, check the following link (by the way, you could mod your axel flanges and go with PBR's):
