recently i found a stock 88 cherokee for a very reasonable price..ive been checkin it out a bit and was wondering what year/model jeeps would be a good donor for some new drums and other misc. parts, or should i just hunt down a disc conversion? im pretty new to jeeps so any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Ive read people take the rear from a ford exp for disc conv.

 

well, i was lookin at the budget builds sticky for junkyard parts and they dont mention drums..ill do some more checkin around thanks.

 

Get an 8.8 from an Explorer, its already got discs, is as stong or stronger than a D44, and some have 4.10s...

 

The 8.8 is good if u have some fab skills, a 44 is good and can be found with discs. A dana44, 35 & chrysler 8.25 can all get a disc conversion with junkyard parts

 

doing the brake booster up grade will increase bracking power more than disc brakes on single diaghpram boosters cherokee

 

thanks for the advice, ill do some searchin at a few local yards
