After reading more about the disc brake swap, the gearing in my rear end with 19.5s and wanting to put in an automatic transmission, I'm thinking the most cost effective way to go would be to just get a P30 step an or RV with all of those parts that would work for me and strip them off. Not that I'm doing this right away or anything. Just thinking out loud looking to the future.

I went the P30 route on my 49 600 COE. The track width was very close and the wheel centers fit the fenders of the COE. I did have to modify the steering box mount some to clear fenders, and reduced width in the front. Motor mounts were in the right place just offset to the passenger side. There are lots of different lengths available and can be modified if needed.
Get as late as you can find. Better brakes and bushings.
