Just picked up Cherokee on a 66 gladiator frame with original running gear and my question is what year can I find a passenger side drop 44 with disk brakes? Thanks

Problem with the '66 truck frame is the post mount front suspension being much wider than the 74-79 versions that were on hangers under the front of the frame.
Look for posts by Josh D about swapping in a front Dodge axle.2000 Infinity QX4, 3.3L, MPFI, 4 speed auto, 2 speed Nissan tcase, Unibody, IFS front, 4 link rear solid axle with 255-70/16s

I have closed knuckle 44s and they are fine, just don't turn as fast. 4-wheel drums with no booster gets tiring when sitting on a hill for a while, but lock up when I need them, too.Justin

If you are out of local options try giving Rob a call at Willys Works:Originally posted by FLESHER...i also called around to some local auto parts store and cant find anything for new drums or shoes.. anyone know a good website?
