Pairing up a disc brake with Huck fronts would be interesting, for sure!
I'd suggest working up a "dual diagonal" setup, where one rear disc and one front drum brake on the opposite corner of the vehicle is operated by each chamber of a dual-outlet master cylinder. That should equalize the fluid volume from each chamber and might avoid having a bad mismatch from one portion of the master cylinder to the other. Jerry
