Just a question, if its not going offroad and your not going locker etc, why bother changing to disk brakes?
A lot of stuffing around for not much benefit.
Would be easier to leave it as a 8 lug, drum brake rear (which work well if set up and maintained) and change the front to 8 lug, using ford or GM D44 outer components.
8 lug rims are easy enough to find. I know you said you have rims but surely its easier to run with the drums and swap rims rather than what you are trying to do?
