Yes the front disc , m/c is a safety improvement, but it is the start of the slippery slope of modification. You will likely need different wheels if you have the factory 15", so do you go 5 lug for more choice, then you need to replace the rears axle to 5 lug, etc etc.. Also, all new brake lines and the correct RP, proportioning valve, and on it goes. I'm not saying don't do it, Just be aware and do your research. I made the switch to dual circuit power m/c front discs and am very glad to have the improved stopping ability.
