How much does a rear ZJ disk conversion cost?
I got my kit for $150 from Big David here on the forums. I believe he upped the price to $170 tho. Comes with entire backing plate assy, calipers, all hardware , mine came with good parking brake shoes and ok brake pads. Just gotta buy rotors and pads and stop being lazy. I only bought the kit instead of going to JY cu I bought it last SUMMER and didn't wanna go to JY and pull myself, I figured I'd have them installed by now lol
He basically goes to JY and pulls ZJ rear discs.
If you go through his thread you can figure out what you'd need to get from JY . If you have the 8.25 you need to dremel out the inner hole that slides over axle tube for proper fitment, otherwise it's a direct bolt on kit. Then you can buy liberty (2x) rear liberty parking brake cables or rig something up.

Yes and it's right there and is most likely leaking too. But you need a torque wrench unless you trust yourself .
I'm sure there tons of write up on here just search it for a step by step.
