Hey guys,
I've read tons and tons of information about the various ways to perform a rear disc swap on the Chrysler 8.25" rear axle, but have chosen to take the route less traveled... The KJ donor route.
A local guy is parting out an '04 Liberty and will sell me the complete rear brake assemblies, pre-pulled, for $200. Pretty sweet deal to me. Vehicle is being parted out due to engine problems (guess resale on those things is crap).
Needless to say, I have a few questions about this:
1) When re-flaring the factory SAE brake line, can it be safely fitted with a metric fitting to properly mate with the caliper?
2) Can my e-brake cables from my current drums be used at all, or do I need to take the donors from the KJ?
Thanks in advance to anyone who knows the answer to this.
