If your going to do the disk brake conversion, you should go ahead and convert the car over to five lug, change the rear axle out to a 8 inch or 9 inch if you can find it. I believe (I could possibly be wrong) the front suspension is the same except for the springs.
One problem area might be since your keeping the straight six and tranny in there, but may be changing the rear axle out is the Drive shaft will need to be shortened. I'm not sure about the dimensions of the 7.5 alxe, havent worked on many of them (even though my little 6 has one) Thats nothing expensive though, and any machine shop should be able to handle the task.
