Brake Question--need To Know Tonight!!!!

[BLKXJ33]

As stupid as I may sound. I have never measured my rear brakes, to see if they are 9 or 10 inch. And tonight I am ordering new parts for them and am too lazy to go outside and check. I have a 2000 jeep cherokee classic 4x4 w/ chrysler 8.25 rear--what size drums do I have.

---Also, I have seen brake rotors for jeep cherokees listing for years up to 1998, is there any difference between the 98 rotors and 2000 rotors. And does anyone know a good website I can get brake parts from....fast, and tonight possibly---thx...

THAT HELPS A TON--either 9 or 10--lol....anyone know for sure about the 8.25

 

[deke]

It's 9"

Chrysler stopped using the 10" rear brakes in 90 or 91

I have 10 on my 8.25 its a 92

I'm assuming the measument being asked for is the diameter of the drum. Is that correct?

 

[cherokeepimpin]

its the inside diameter of the drum, the measurement should be cast into the outside of the drum

I have 10 on my 8.25 its a 92

Are you certain? It "shouldn't" be
