Default 8.8 rear disk brakes on a 8.25

I know the zj and kj brakes work but what about the 8.8? I have all the brake parts for the 8.8 and was wondering if anyone fabbed up the backing plate to work.

It's a different backing plate bolt pattern for sure, may be different axle offset too.

Yeah I know the pattern is different. Might just get some zj backing plates and then use the calipers and rotors from the 8.8
