Range Rovers had a Transfer case break on them also (may or may not include Disco's and others, can not remember).
I have seen numerouse others that have done this aftermarket, primarily with disk breaks instead of drums. I have not seen a write up on this or an example on a XJ. Let us know if you find anything.
I've seen a few writeups about using a Geo/Suzuki disk as a brake...just realize that any breakage downstream from the brake will allow that axle to roll freely...
This is actually fairly common on big 2WD trucks and vans (and motorhomes). High Angle Drivelines makes one for an Atlas that also works on the Dana 300 IIRC, but I believe the 231's aluminum case is too weak to mount one to.

I found a few pics for ya. I don't remember where I got them, but it looks like somebody put an ebrake on a 231!
By the way, I should have pointed out in my previous post, that the brakes on 2WD chassis are behind the trannys of course and are usually drums, not disk, like what are usually used on atlas's and d300's.
