I'm running JK44's without issue. I'm even running 6/4 piston Baer big brakes on my stock master cylinder and the braking performance is exceptional. My '01 master cylinder has a 1" piston (which was the recommended size from Baer IIRC), not sure about yours. I am running a ZJ proportioning valve on a non-ABS XJ.
Have you plumed the rear axle lines? Currie sells a great kit for this swap: http://www.currieenterprises.com/CE-6013JK
Elsewhere I'm running XJ brake lines (the front calipers should use the same banjo fittings) and 2-door JK emergency brake cables (I left the mounting tabs on the axle).
