the above pics were one of my truck in its natural environment -- meaning it's a 4wd that gets used as a 4wd...

and the second is of the 1987 corporate 10 bolt front diff that I've installed under there as of just a few days ago... it is the source of the brake upgrades, and why I bought all this 1987 brake hardware / booster / master cylinder...

and why I've ended up reading so much info online, trying to find a way to make this stuff work...

I've given up on using the 1987 booster, it's too big, and too different.

What I want to do is swap the new 87 booster with a new 64-66 booster, and mate it up with a disc/drum master cylinder to power those 1987 brake calipers on that front axle...

again, any info/advice/insight you can provide is greatly appreciated!

here's the pics of what I have currently:
