Hi all, need some expert CJ knowledge here. My '76 CJ-5 resto project needs to be converted to disks. A buddy just gave me the housing & knuckles from a '79, and a box of parts (rotors, calipers, hubs, axle shafts, spindles, caliper supports, etc.) from an '84. I'd like to swap over the '79 knuckle to my '76 housing and then adapt all the later bits. Simple question, whets involved in using the 84 stuff on the 79 knuckles? So far I found that the '84 caliper supports bolt right up, but I haven't had time to try mounting up all the rest of the stuff to check the fit. I'd also like to use the nice, new 6-bolt hubs off my '76 rather than the later 5-bolt stuff. Thanks in advance!
