I also run 4 wheel disc brakes on my Ute and use a VH v8 Commodore booster and a 1'' master cylinder 4 piston callipers all round and 295mm Commodore front rotors on HZ stubs and all works great .........FC427.........

For simplicity sake run HZ front brakes with any booster from a medium to large car, and a 1 inch diameter master cylinder.
You can get much flasher than this and the possibilities are almost endless depending on how much cash you want to spend and what size tyres you will be running.

So the HZ Stub axles will fit straight on to the hr front end? And if so will that also lower the front like HQ stub axles.

Stub axles from HK right through to WB are identical. Make sure you use HKTG steering arms though.
