If you use the hilux master or any other drum rear master there is a little valve that holds a small bit of pressure in the rear line so gut a self tapper screw and there will be a small peice of mesh in where the brake line goes screw it into that and pull it out there should be a small bit of rubber come out then it's ok to use with rear disc's
plenty of parts on the bench

Just get a M/C and booster from an 80 series.1" bore.
Make sure it's the non ABS type.
There a few types ABS / NON ABS, 4 bolt M/C and 2 bolt M/C.
I have a spare 80 M/C 2 bolt you can have for $20.00.
Just have to find a Booster to suit.

The 80 M/C is set up for disc/disc.

Cheers
