Disc brake 14 bolt rear end

What's the consensus on the braking performance of FACTORY (not drum brake 14 bolts with disc brake conversion kits) 14 bolt disc brake rear ends in a squarebody? The axles came out of 99-2006 trucks. They have a shoe-in-hat style parking brake which is the main reason I want to use it over a disc brake conversion kit. Curious if anyone has done this swap and had any issues/regrets doing it?

Also, what master cylinder did you use for the swap?
