Hey guys (and gals),
I bought a Dana 44 that came with the parts for the Crown Vic Disk Brake conversion but it is way too much work for little gain in braking. So I have decided to go back to the drums. Well the problem is, I have NO parts what so ever, no backing plate, no drums, no pads, no springs - nuttin.

Does anyone have any of these parts I can buy? I called the stealership and they no longer carry the backing plate.

Thanks in advance -

Mark

You sure about that? I got ZJ discs on the rear of mine. They work way better than the drums I pulled off.

It isn't that hard of a conversion.

The guy who did the write up said he noticed very little difference and he had a bitch of a time hooking up the E-brake.

I would love to go to disks but the stuff I was given are all the wrong parts. The retainer plate does not fit the Backing Plate and I have no idea what frickn springs I've got. I would love to hit the Junk Yards but I have absolutely no time.

What year ZJ? What mods did you have to do?

Any other advice / help would be much appreciated.
