Rear Disc Brake Conversion

[Impact]

Hey Guys,

So I threw the whole D44 (now I can throw them out idea out the window and picked up a HP D60... To go along with that I also picked up a 14 bolt. Now I am way over my head... Should be an interesting build!
I have been reading around and everything seems to point to elderado brake setup for the 14 bolt so that I can have a park brake.
Does anybody have any better suggestions or experience doing this for tips?


Thanks

im adding front and rear 60's to my yj. from what i can find the brackets for rear disc are very similar and or the same idea. get the brackets, add '76-'87 chev truck rotors. for calipers they sayuse the same year truck front calipers or the '77-'79 eldorado calipers if you want e-brakes at the calipers. down side is the eldorado caliper  are more mone yand the e-brake is finicky, this is what  ive heard. its been many years since if worked on an eldorado. you could run the truck front calipers and use a ebrake on the back of your t'case, depending on your t/case. this is what im looking to d owith mine. i prefer the keep-it-simple-stupid plan.
as for brackets, balistic fab, blue torch fab, poly performance, tmr (canadian), these all have them for under 100$

The Eldorado brakes suck in my opinion. The main issue is the integral parking brake that is originally set up for foot pedal with much longer travel than a hand-brake. This means that you will then usually end up having hard time setting up the parking brake properly. It will either be too tight or too loose. But I also had issues adjusting them just in general. One would be great and the other either too tight or too loose. Having the parking brake improperly adjusted results in poor rear brakes overall as the brake pedal has to now travel farther to pump more fluid in order to push the piston bigger distance (inside the calliper on the loose side). In the end, better solution is to use $20 Camaro front callipers instead of the $170 Caddy ones. Put the parking break on the t-case output shaft and be done with it.
