Replacing long bed brake lines

To start off I'm going to replace my brake lines from front to back on my 66 gmc long bed truck I was going to get a complete kit but also wanted to put on a power booster in the process and keep the drum brakes until I do my drop and put on spindles and disk brakes what's the best way to go about replacing them should I go with the manual line kit or what kit would fit my need the best so I wouldn't have to buy another line kit later on ?

Re: Replacing long bed brake lines

Your stock front flex hoses will hook up to the new disc calipers so your good there. Did you want to add a dual MC so that your front and rears work independently? If you are adding the booster now, you will be good to go on the future drop spindles/ disc conversion.

Yes I would like to go dual mc so my fronts and rears are separate and set up for disc in the future when I do my drop

When you change to front disc brakes, you will have to change the front lines.
