Default Dana 60 Brake upgrades???

Does anyone out there know of any brake upgrades for my old
GMC dually dana 60 front. I am converting the rear 70 to disc but have been unable to find anything to beef up the front stopping power. My wife almost wrecked when she drove it the first time because she wasn't used to such a big old heavy truck. I am considering going to 19.5 wheels in the future if clearance is an issue.

before you go all out and do the fronts, id wait until the rear is done. i thought about upgrading my front brakes too, but after going to disc in the rear it wasnt needed at all it stopped alot better. just remember when going to disc in the rear, you might need a bigger master cylinder to push the extra fluid
