Went with spindles from F,M,J . . . used ones with calipers on rear side . . . made sure to get correct calipers with bleeder on TOP . . . and used aluminum master cylinder with adapter from Dr. Diff . . . manual drum brakes to manual disc/drum . . . works great actually, no issues at all . . . oh, also got the braided brake lines from Dr. Diff also . . . over 10k miles on car now, no wear issues on tires, brakes work great.
