If your concerned about your brakes, convert to a dual circuit  system NOW.
It’s a bolt on conversion and MUCH safer than the old single  systems, they
were really rather dangerous.

I did the conversion on  the Crate.

I found that the front drums were also very inferior to the  Disc setup, I
don’t have very many miles on them yet so maybe they will  wear in but Ive
found that during heavy stops the car doesn’t want to stay  straight.


 
I did the same thing on my 64 T-34, but went with a wide 5  disc kit (read 
expensive), but I prefer how the car stops with it. It also  keeps the car 
looking stock from the outside, as it still has it's stock rims.  A 4 lug 
disc conversion would have been the cheaper way to go, but I would  have lost 
the wide 5 rims and stock hub caps.
 
Jim rebuilt the dual circuit master cylinder for me, along with  hooking me 
up with a later (longer) brake pedal push rod. But, I also  replaced ALL of 
the steel brake lines, hoses, and replaced the rear wheel  cylinders and 
shoes, and went with DoT 5 brake fluid. I felt, that since  I was in there 
rebuilding the brake system, I'd do ALL of it, and be done with  it. : )
