Disc brake conversion
What's parts from a 76 2wd with disc will work in a 74 4x4 front disc conversion? Master cylinder, booster, proportioning valve, pedals? Obviously the spindles likely won't.

Pressure valve is plumbed a tad different but same valve. 2wd has a plug and fronts are spliced where as 4wd fronts are ran separate from factory. I doubt it made any difference?
The calipers are the same but the actual hard lines into them are different for they go upward into a bracket on the frame on 2wd and downward to a bracket on the axle on 4wd
The pads are the same as well along with the caliper mounting pieces.
Rotors are way different.

Lower pic: 1976/79 F100/150 4WD
2WD's don't have 2B292 caliper anchor plates (see lower pic), so the calipers do not mount the same way.
The 2K004/2K005 splash shields are specific to 2WD or 4WD
