Disc Brake Conversion

I was wondering if anyone knows if you can use the disc brake set up off of a Jeep Wagoneer to convert a F-100. Both are Dana 44's, and I have everything from the knuckles out. I can't see any reason why this won't work but thought I'd ask before tearing the truck down.

Re-direction can be the best advice

Maybe check in the drivetrain forum or the brakes/steering forum.

The bolt pattern and drive axles were used on Numerous years trucks not just on 73-79.Plus they come in different housing lengths.

This topic is a perfect candidate for those other forums.
