Yes you can get by but a resleeve or 66 brake master cylinder would be
better (3/4" bore for disc, 7/8 for drum)
A frames are the same but the king pins are different from drum to disc.
Use the 66 A frames complete with king pins.
Get new brake hoses too, don't even think about using the ones from the
66 unless they are under 10 years old.
