I have a set of backing plates & dust shields for $120 shipped to your door. They have what appears to be new pads & hardware. If you have a 97 up XJ & want a driver's side e brake cable I'll throw it in.

Everything except rotors, emergency brake shoes, possibly useable brake pads and a passengers side emergency brake cable. The parts are from 94- 98 Jeep Grand Cherokee.

Without going through all 54 pages it looks like I would need to supply the rotors and pads for sure. Anything else od my D35?? I plan to install a comparable ZJ booster, master cylinder, and proportioning valve at the same time.
And do you have a kit in stock ready to ship??

I have one kit left. You will need rotors, pads, e brake shoes & figure out which e brake cable option is best for you.
What year is your XJ? You may not have to swap out the brake booster. Most just swap out the porportoning valve.

Sorry for the late reply David. Mine is a 1989.
You say e brake shoes....does your kit include the hardware?? And what are the options for the e brake cable?
Sorry for the questions but I am kinda clueless. Never done this before, I usually go to the yard and strip the parts myself. Your price is about what I'd pay for the privilege so I'd rather pay you to do it:-)
Let me know and send me the payment info and I'll get it on the way. I'll take the kit.

I have a 89 as well. If you are not lifted over 3 inches you might can reuse your factory cables along with a few small cable clamps. Or you can opt for new cables. The ZJ cables will NOT work. Mine sits about 7 inches high in the rear so I had to get inventive. I bought a extra ZJ cable & cut the ends a few inches long & cable clamped them to existing cables where they attach to the emergency brake handle. They still need fine tuning.
I sold the last kit yesterday. I will get more either this weekend or next. The kits do come with emergency brake shoes & hardware. But, the friction material is usually missing from the shoes.
