Your brake lines, other than front to back length, will be no different from a C/20. You can use the brakes, too.

By the way, welcome to the site!
The truck has always been in a barn or garage. My grandpa NEVER left equipment of his out in the elements. It could be a longbed, I'm not really sure TBH, and I only get up there about once a year.

From what I was seeing all the pre bent tubes and disk brake conversions only came in C/10 and C/20. I thought I needed to get the parts from a 73 to 88 C/30 with disks to do it on my truck. Could I use the C/20 kit and just have 3/4 ton capability on the front end?
