A while back I saw a post where a guy used modern lx rear brakes and machined the brackets to fit a 8 3/4. Can't for the life of me find it now. Was that anyone? Do you know the poster? Have it saved ? I really would like to find the tread again.
Thanks !!

Update: found it !!

Funny this came up. I was interested in that swap myself a few months back and dug through all my mags. Finally found the first part but was missing the second. Posted a want ad and another member on here was kind enough to send me that issue. Have it sitting beside the bed !!

Mopar action?
 
I made a kit to swap 2000 mustang disc brakes on the 8 3/4 and keep the taperrd bearings.
Noticed more and more kits being made by bigger companies over the last 5 years.
