show me your axle bearing retainer plates

Is there a part number that is dirrect bolt on for an XJ Dana 44? I am trying to prepare for a ZJ disc conversion. I want to use them for a template when I modify the ZJ caliper brackets prior to disassembling the axle.
Thanks,

The ZJ Disc/Rubi D44 has a different bolt spacing than the XJ D44. Pick the lesser of two evils:

Use a Rubicon retaining plate and redrill the axle flange on your XJ D44 to fit the ZJ backing plate and Rubi retaining plate.

or

Use the XJ retaining plate, modify the ZJ backing plate, and make a spacer to fit properly with the discs.
