Question Disc Brakes

I would like to know which Master cylinder / brake proportioning valve I need to use on my truck to change the rear brake to disc? since the truck has a 14bolt GM rear axle the swap is easy. its just i dont really want to use an adjustable PP valve if I don't have to. any suggestions?? oh I read a lot of the post on this forum with little or no help. let get technical. Oh the only reason it has a 14 bolt is the Dana 60 was shattered from some hard wheeling. a quote from the previous owner.

You could check with some of the sponsers here, but I know wild horses sells prop. valves set up for 4 wheel discs. Price is around a $100. I think you can use your same MC but you might have to remove a check valve inside the line that hooks to the MC for the rear. They are located in Ca. You could call them and see for sure.
