Was wanting to know if there are parts in the "junk yard" to convert my drums to disc brakes.

I am a bit confused about the f100, part and the year, and the fact that 83's should have had discs up front already. Unless you are wanting to install discs out back.
If you want discs out back, the easiest thing to do would be to search for an entire late model rear axle that already has discs, or find a lincoln rear end with a 9" that also has discs. The entire disc brake set up will bolt right up, or with little modifications, you can install the entire axle.

Ih yeah, welcome aboard!
