Complete brake overhaul?

It's gotten to the point were I might as well just do a complete overhaul of the brakes on my '78. I remember reading a step-by-step article online by one of the truck magazines but I can't find it anymore. I think it might have been Classic Trucks. Does anybody know where I can find an article or thread that details the parts and steps involved in a complete brake overhaul?

This one has an install of a hydroboost system. "Installing Tubular Control Arms For Chevy Trucks" -
