In the Jeep community it's quite common to replace the rear drum brakes with disc brakes for better braking performance with bigger tires or when the transfer case ratio is changed to 4:1.
In 2000 I replaced the drum brakes on my 1998 Jeep Cherokee with 11" disc from a Lincoln Versaille, calipers from a Cadillac Eldorado, modified proportioning valve and stainless braided brake lines.
Has anyone upgraded the rear brakes on a 90+ 70 series truck or troop carrier to disc brakes and what parts are involved?
I have the 6 bolt rear hubs, but I am not sure which rear differential I have.
Anyone have pictures or a definite way to identify the differentials?
