I installed the Overland single piston BB kit up front with 288mm vented
rotors a few years ago.
That improved my braking performance and pedal effort significantly.
Recently I put new, heavy duty
drums on the rear and replaced the shoes. That finished off the pedal feel
(I press maybe 1 1/2" and
get braking right away, very high on the pedal travel comparatively) and
much improved stopping.
My emergency brake will barely click once and will not go further and I have
firm hill holding e-brake.

Although discs in the rear seem like a good move into the 21st century, I
won't be doing that soon.
