I did the same with my 75 (drum to disc). I used the ppv off the disc truck, found that the booster from the drum truck would not fit the master for the disc truck and ended up using a booster from a pre 77 3/4 ton 2wd with dics breaks that didn't have the bellcrank and the master off the same 2wd. A good way to find what you need for a booster and master is to look at the parts book for a 76 3/4 ton 4wd they basicly used the same parts
as I described.If you need more info you could pm me look in my public profile

This is the best price vs quality I can find.

The OEM one is long gone from dealerships.
