Change rim brakes to disc brakes?

if i already have the right receptors how can I change my rim brakes to disc brakes?Change rim brakes to disc brakes?
To change to disk brakes you will need the following.

1) Disk brake caliper mounts on the fork and on the rear.

2) You must have disk brake compatible rims.

If you have both follow the manufactures instructions and enjoy.Change rim brakes to disc brakes?
as long as you have disc hubs, just buy some disc brakes, take off the rim ones, and install the calipers and rotors. not that hard. you might need an adaptor for a 6 or 8 inch rotor though.Change rim brakes to disc brakes?
You'll probably need new wheels, disc brakes, and brake levers (this sometimes means new shifters). It can grow into a huge money-pit. WheelWorld.com sometimes has disc upgrades. Sometimes, it's better to look at a bike upgrade.
