Find the closest LKQ big truck salvage yard & go tell them what you want to do.
1st off does your school bus chassis have Dayton or Budd wheel hubs?
You gotta get rid of Daytons if you want disc brakes.
Get a whole front axle that has mounting pads as close to yours as possible, wider OK narrower not OK. If it's wider un-rivet your spring hangers & space them out to match your new axle.
This will also allow you to use later model split brake system w/ hyd booster.
If both axles Daytons just buy whole roller chassis from LKQ.
Next install 1100 x 24.5 polished aluminum rims & tall G65 Goodyears!
