There's a great tech article on this site for your model years.
https://www.ford-trucks.com/articles...earlymodel.php
Since I've been with this forum, this is probably one of the most frequent asked questions I've seen, so there's also a good deal of threads written on the subject. Run a search, then start asking your specific questions. There's plenty of guys with the knowledge here who are also very willing to help.
Good luck!!

Hello 64,
I have wondered the same thing for some time, but can not find any disc kits for the F250.
I find that the 250 is not all that common for the 64, however I just overhauled my whole brake system with dual master, and pressure regulating valve for rear, also changed that goofy half front wheel cylinder to a regular dual, and although would still like to have disc in front, it stops decent for 40 year old brake tech.
Let me know if you come up with a disc conversion.

64, I used one off a 68-70 Falcon, though I have read others say that a master from a 68 Mustang will work also.

No, I just have manual brakes,but I keep my eye open for a booster at swap meets, for that is a possible upgrade I would like to do, though it does stop pretty good empty, but with a load I keep a good distance behind other vehicles to be safe.

i never have a load so maybe just the dual master will work great for me. i have also wondered if a single master with a booster would work very good. i have one that i removed from a 65 parts truck i had. what do you think
