I thought about this conversion awhile ago and saved these links. Don't know if they are any good or not. Let us know what you do.

the f-superduty (88-97 f450) had a hydroboost setup. If you find one of those trucks, everything is bolt on, other than the master if you use your stock one, it has to be modified. Or you can use the f-sd master. F-sd had rear discs and bigger brakes. I'm not sure on 99+ superduty stuff.
