Hi Vinny, one place I can recommend to find information about
cnc retrofit is

http://www.motiongroup.com/cncpkg.htm

I do not have any afiliation to this company nor do I suggest to
buy anything from them.
This is where I first learned about it and I liked the way they
explained how the process works and what parts you need ect.
You will need to browse around a bit to get to the infos.
There are many other places that sell retrofits you will have to
look at many of them and learn what the difference is that is been
offered before you will be able to make a informed decision about
what is best for you.
Good Luck
