Another brake drum question
Hello, i have 2000 jeep cherokee sport with 350,000 miles. It a Chrysler 8.25. It has a floor shifter. I search that jeep xj come with either 9" or 10 inch brake drum. However the previous owner put a w-11" on it. Now i cannot tell what to use. Also all the part is worn down and rusted.
The question is, since i am going to replace all part from brake pad, drum, piston, spring, can i just used either the 9" set or the 10" in set? And which one would you used. Or is there other location on car for me to find the right size to use.
Thank you

That is something we used to do way back when to CJ's. My old CJ2A had 9" drums. You stole all the drums, backing plates, etc from old ****** pickups which had 11" setups and swapped everything out. Never heard of people doing it to XJ's. Tried googling it and came up with nothing. I am going to say no on the 9" or 10" parts. Definitely not the shoes. I looked up the hardware kits and even they are specific to 9" or 10" so that sounds like a no too. Any chance there is some identifying numbers on any of the parts? If you can get a number of some sorts it is possible that it can be put into the computer under interchange at a Napa and they might be able to come up with something. If they can interchange it and get a part number they can look up what that part fits. Or in this case what it is from. I looked up the parts for a '00 Ram 1500. Looks like they came with 11" drums. Wonder if that is what they used.
