I would go to a double master cylinder for safety. I have helped a friend do it, we just had to run some new hard lines for the front. He also added front disc brakes. I know someone he has done it a few times and can add more detail. Have fun with it.

The dual MC swap with drum brakes will be for safety and it is a little involved with splitting the circuit and making a new line for the rear. Check this thread. Some good info you can use.

I have a mini truck axle under my fj. The disc brakes from a 76 40 axle work on the mini.i have a complete front disc brake axle for sale when you get ready.its set for a soa already cut and turned.
Ozark Crawler, do you still have the front disc axle for sale? I have a 68 fj40 I'd love to convert to disc up front. If so how much for the axle & to ship it to Cincinnati Ohio?
