i did a quick search and couldnt quite find what i was looking for so i figured id start a thread ,

i have a non abs 97 xj with the 8.25 in it , i know theres excisiting axels in junk yards that i can pull disc brakes off of , im getting sick of swaping out drum pads , too much mud and sand get in there and just to hard to keep clean , so i wanna convert , what should i look for and what extra parts might i need and how difficult is it to swap onto my rear ?

This is on my list of things to do in the future, so if anyone can add some tips or ideas I would appreciate it.

wow that actually seems quite simple , the hardest part looks like setting up the parking brake wich mine dont work anyway so im not even concerned about hooking one back up lol

Parking brakes are important at the boatramp for sure!
