I'm building a Ford 9" (Big Bearing, Late) for my XJ and want to use disc brakes. I have done a ton of research and it looks like the Explorer discs are the easiest/cheapest way to go, but you have to re-drill the rotors if you want 5 on 5.5 BP.
Has anyone done this using other rotors? There are many rotor options with 5 on 5.5 that would fit the axle (late 70's F150, '94-'02 Dodge, CJ7, mid '90's Suzuki Sidekick or Geo Tracker, etc.)
BUT, will any of these work with the Explorer setup? It would be nice not to re-drill every time new rotors are needed...
