67 C20 Drop Question

New to the truck scene, and just bought my first project. Its a 67 C20, already lowered. Camaro rear suspension (5 lug and all), and notched frame. However, i'm still sporting drums on all four corners. Possibly looking to swap out front end for better ride/handling (assuming its basically the stock 3/4 ton set up), and swap to 4-wheel discs. The previous owner mentioned a Mustang suspension swap for the front, but everything i've found is for chevy trucks up to '59.

1. Whats the best/easiest front suspension swap?

2. Whats the best/easiest 4-wheel disc brake swap?

Again, i'm new. Any info is great.

Re: 67 C20 Drop Question

Welcome to the scene...I've seen guys do a modified C4 corvette crossmember with steering and components in the front that work out really well. There's a guy on here named PorterBuilt that builds really cool 'drop members' for the air ride setup. Look in the suspension forum under 'drop member'.
