Help with brakes and spindles

I have a 69 longbed which is being bagged. For the front ive taken the crossmember out and chopped it 1.5inches. I went and bought some 3" drop spindles from chassis tech. It says i need disc brakes and an upper ball joint from a 73-80 c10. Do any of you know how to convert my front drums(power) to accept these disc brakes. Do i need a new master cylinder, proportioning valve, lines, ect. Does anyone know a good place to get some discs, calipers, hubs, and whaterver else i need?

you will need a disk/drum master and prop. valve. you said it was already power so you wont need the booster.

MC & PV for disc/drum. Rotors, bearings, loaded calipers, for whatever spindles you have, 73-80? Hoses they need banjo to fit calipers on one end and your hard line on the other. Check this post its about 71-72 calipers don't know if they have the same size fitting.
