1966 GMC Suburban front disc brake conversion - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am converting to front disc brakes and have some questions. Removed closed knuckle Dana 44 and installed a Dana 44 with discs from a 1985 4x4 blazer. My sub is 4x4 as well. Is the power booster I have original to my sub? From what I have read I will need a new master cylinder for disc/ drum. Then I will need a pro portioning valve and new brake lines and then get a push rod from booster to master. I may need a new push rod from brake pedal to booster as the brake pedal is really close to the floor. Am I on the right track?
