'65 c-10 disc brake booster

I'm getting ready to put 6 lug disc brakes on the front (at least) on my c-10. I am a bit clueless on the master cylinder/booster/power brake thing. I pretty much understand the disc brakes that I need, but need some advice with the other part of the system.

What do you all recommend here to use with a 6 lug disc brake system, that may or may not be front and rear. By the way, do you all put on rear with the front, or will I be ok with just front?

I appreciate the advice I have gotten from you all, as I am learning as I go here.

Thanks,
'70GMCStep

Re: '65 c-10 disc brake booster

You don't have to go with 4 wheel disc brakes unless you want to. They can always be added later too. For the master cylinder just get one for a '73-'87 pickup, Blazer or Suburban. As for the booster you can either use the one for the same '73-'87 pickup, Blazer or Suburban or you can use one of these brackets I just posted for sale in the classifieds here

If you go with the '73-'87 factory one, you will have to drill holes in your firewall to mount it. Either way you'll need the combination (proportioning) valve from the '73-'87.
