I haven't really seen any brake parts upgrades for the front brakes. Just your normal replacement parts.

But since you said something about blowing a seal......I have to do this lol

I've seen that too. I guess it works ok.....if you like not having a parking brake.

Fwiw......I'd just do the 1ton shoe/wheel cylinder upgrade thing and call it a day out back. Installing a hydroboost brake booster in place of the vacuum booster is another worthwhile addition to the brake system
