The 3600 would not work because it uses an 8 lug wheel/hub.  I assume that the 
3800 would have the same kind of problems.

First off, Thanks for all the input..
I forgot to mention that my truck is a 3800 panel.. Is the spindle the 
same as on the 3100? it looks like my bolt pattern is the same, so I'm 
assuming any disc brake kit will work...
Next, I'm thinking of doing the power booster since I'll be changing 
the master cylinder out.  Now here's where I'd like some more opinions.
I've got a 396 BB and a TH400 in it. Does this mean that a booster will 
not fit? I've heard the auto trannys cause interfearance problems.
If a booster will fit, what are the opinions out there on buying a junk 
yard booster.  The kits at the truck suppliers are pricey if you buy 
their booster.
Ok.. I know it's a lot, but I appreciate all the help...
Thanks
