OK, here's a question for ya. Is it possible to convert to a rear disc brake setup and keep the 4 wheel ABS? This isn't something that's going to happen soon if possible but I have been running this around my head for awhile.
Sorry to hear about your stress, I hope all is well, or it gets there quickly8)
Great question. A few guys have done the rear disk brake upgrade. A few others have upgraded their Master Cylinder to a Ford F350 master cylinder which made a big difference for him. Unfortunately, I have not chatted with him in a while. Most folks disable the ABS by pulling the fuse. I have not heard of any negative side effects of pulling the fuse, but that is a personal decision. I do not think you can do the conversion and keep the abs...
Here is an article on using disk brakes off a Grand Cherokee.
When you look at these articles, remember that the difference between the D35 and the 8.25 with reference to these articles is that the 8.25 will require the middle hole of the backing plate to be enlarged. Everything else should be the same for the swap.
