I've read some stuff now on ZJ disc brake conversions for the 8.25 from the sites listed below.
My one concern is this... Calipers require more fluid than wheel cylinders do. None of these guys have swapped in bigger master cylinders to accomodate this, at least they don't mention anything about it. By comparison, M.O.R.E. strongly suggests upgrading to a ZJ master cylinder when swapping in a Ford 8.8 rear axle to accomodate the disc brakes.
I know there are a bunch of guys here that have done thie ZJ rear disc swap. Do you have to swap in a bigger master cylinder to make this work.
