Get a later model Type 3 disc and stub axle set up and bolt it onto the existing trailing arms.
The only problem you will have is that you have 4 stud instead on 5 but you can fit an adaptor plate to get back to 5 stud.

Just to add to Daves comments, you can swap the back drums from a 68 or later Type 3 to your car so you have 4 stud all round.
The other important thing to finish the job is to install a 68 or later Type 3 dual circuit master cylinder and associated hoses, you will then also
need to fit a new reservoir for the brake fluid.
Then you can have the best braking system.
Gotta love Type 3's.
Cheers,
Calcool
