Default Disc brakes scrape

Hello all, new to your forum but excited to be here as I endevor to build a cherokee for mild crawling for now. my question is I had to swap out my bent 2001 dana 30 to a 88 dana 30 pulled from a junk yard with out the brakes i used my 01 discs and man does it ever scrape, Im assuming that this swap cant be done? brakes that is. also the reason for the 88 was thats all i could find at the time and for the price just to get back on the road for now...thanks for any info

Can you swap the 01 knuckles and hubs over? The 01 rotors are larger and will not work on a renix knuckle or hub bearing.

Thanks dan...ill just go buy the discs that fit. Quicker than changing out knuckles plus the impact the original one took on the drivers side that is bent i really dont want to use any parts on it..

Thanks again
