If you want to replace then drums just go to napa they have all the parts needed. If you want to upgrade the brakes but keep the stock look thats simple also. You can go with bigger pistons, slightly larger drums with bigger shoes (depends on the ID of your wheels), Shoes with different linings, ceramic coated drums and shoes. What type of MC are you running a single line or duel? You may also want to go with a newer MC with at least a 1 1/8" bore!

Some light reading for you here:http://www.allpar.com/fix/brake-drums.html and here http://www.allpar.com/history/mopar/disc-brakes.html
