It ain't grey hair, it's chrome!
Well, it's kinda the opposite of what's normal but I'd think you could just use a disc/drum master and route the disc side to the rear, drum side to the front. You would definitely need to use an adjustable proportioning valve on the line to the rear discs as they are almost certain to be more powerful than the front drums, then you can tune them down to prevent locking up.

Maybe its a good sign to convert the front to disc as well...
I would but I have 48 Ford 2 ton front axle that I was told there is nothing out there to convert them. Is that true?

I'm not 100% sure, but from the research I have done, they are the same.
There are a ton of places that sell 48-52 disc conversions for the F1...

I have a F6 front axle and I have not seen anything for a F6 I also want to keep the big wheels 19.5

From what I have found F1-F3 is the same, and after that the spindles are different. I'm not sure there is enough demand for the larger trucks for a company to provide a kit, but it would be worth a call to one of them to find out.
