I have been trying to research the upgrading of my brakes with this forum and googling everything under the sun to try and get a good plan together.
I have an 1988 XJ wagoneer limited with the upgraded tow package (Dana 44 rear/ 30 front) and am curious of these two questions:
1. Can the front discs and calipers be used from an 98 ZJ (Grand Cherokee) on a pre 90 XJ? (I know they have different calipers and disc sizes but can they be modded to fit the older XJ)
2. Is the currently accepted model of using a rear disc brake setup off of a ZJ the best upgrade for rear drum to disc conversioin for a 88 XJ with a dana 44 rear?
Thanks for any knowledge you may be able to share as most of the stuff out there is a little vague as to options with these types of upgrades.
