Disc brake help

This is my first post ever.
Ok here's the deal....
I have a 1967 c10 with drum brakes front and rear. I'm going to convert it over to power disc on the front. I have some parts already.
Parts I have is....
72 c10 drop spindles
Power brake booster
72 c10 Inner and outer tie rods and center link
72 c10 master cylinder
6 lug aftermarket rotors to fit the 72 drop spindles

The parts I'm looking for is..
Brake dust shields
Spindle nuts and washers
Proportion valve
Steel round Rotor end cap
Lines to hook up the master cylinder to proportion valve and main brake lines.
Brake hose or line to adapt the caliper to existing 67 line.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Part numbers and parts that interchange would be great as well. Thanks in advance.

Re: Disc brake help

I have also found that the drum brake spindle "nut" will work on most drop sprindles for disc brakes.

Re: Disc brake help

Thanks for the info guys. Your awesome! One more question. Will the brake dust shields interchange from a newer truck?
