jeep only welded these on the outside of the mounts - making it easy to remove these off a junk axle.

definitely keep the disks for better stopping power, you may need to adapt the two lines from jeep metric to ford if they are standard, but that is cake.

gotcha, is there engough hydraulic pressure for the ford calipers?

Yes. You can easily carry around a D-35 all day long by yourself. A 8.8 takes 2 people to lift it. Its a no brainer. Trust the people who have delt with this. its well worth it.

Well It looks like I have made up my mind and it is better to do it right the first way instead of waisting money getting another d-35 I will now be looking for a 8.8 with 4.10's! Thanks guys for the input it really helps a lot.
