Dimmable? My recessed lights were dimmable, but after using the can converter and installing a dimmable pendant, the light will only turn on and off.

The dimming function is normally in the switch, not the fixture. If you dimmed the previous lights with a dimming wall switch, then the pendants would also dim unless they use a bulb that is not dimmable. Some LED bulbs will not work with certain dimmers, and most fluorescents are not dimmable. These converters have no effect on dimming or not dimming.

When ordering, are the measurements for the cut hole in the ceiling or should it include the trim piece measurement of the can light?

Remove the trim piece and measure the cut hole in the ceiling.

My housing does not have holes for screwes. I tried to drill holes and it is very difficult. How can I fixed the kit on the housing?

I agree that you can use self tapping screws. If that doesn't work, buy a special drill bit that is designed to go through metal (they are available at Lowe's and Home Depot).

Does this work for hanging a 30ish lb ceiling fan?

The R4 in not rated for ceiling fans. Only the R56.
