Redo stock front end or use newer parts? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a 64 Chevy 1/2 ton. I was wondering what you guys thought about the frontend under this truck? Rebuild and upgrade it to disc brakes or use a newer font clip and change all of it. I have a 74 front end not being used right now. It will be a while before anything actually gets done but I want to have a plan laid out so I dont get offtrack while doing this.

TIA
Brad
