Default fox brakes suck! help with decisions

well i was driving today and my brakes are getting noticeably worse the pads in front look good my fluid resovior is filled with dirty brake fluid. when i brake it feels very loose in the brake system and it shakes not sure if the calipers are seized rotors warped what is a good way to check .Im not sure how to approach this fix/upgrade I was planning on getting 73 mm calipers and the hawk pads to go with them are they the same as 60 mm caliper brakes? also was looking to get a rear disc conversion what would be the cheapest way with keeping 4 lug would it be the cadillac calipers and brackets. also what is the upgrade for master cylinder / brake booster everyone talks about, is that the 94-95 brake booster master cylinder or just the 93 cobra, and would it be a bolt in (except for the lines)and have no clearance issues? sorry for so many questions.

one cheap way of doing rear disks is find a TC. they have rears with disks


also ppl should change brake fluid every 50k i think it is. ppl dont and **** usually gets dirty.
