Well as for the disk brakes, i do know of site, it's www.mpbrakes.com ,but I think a better option would be to find a doner truck for the parts. One you could pull the power steering off of also. For the disk brake swap I think the spindels are easliy inter-changeable from teh mid sixites into the mid seventies, maybe later. For power steering converstion, I think the column is a bit shorter in power steering trucks so you would need the column too. This is where doner truck vome in handy. Hope this helps

Since all 65-79 trucks share the same front end, harvesting parts from a mid 70s truck are an excellent choice for bolting directly to your truck.
