Has anyone fit the (summit, speedway, pirate jack; they all look the same) E-brake compatible rear disc brake kit to their 8 3/4” A body rear end, and been able to clear 14” rally wheels (4.5” BBP)? They say 15” wheels but I’ve got 14x7” 4.5” Rallye wheels that I heard can fit some disc kits. Thanks!!

Go to your local salvage yard and take the rear dice brakes off of a JEEP Liberty 02 to 07 or a Grand Cherokee 96 to 98. save lots of money. only one mod to the caliper brackets and its a 100% bolt on. Some other little tweaks to the E-brake cable. See my story in Mopar Action. AUG 2018 Epic rear Disc-Brake swap. OCT 2018.
 
This is a rear disc brake set-up i put on my 1980 Ply Volar'e station wagon. It's a 8.75 rear from a 1970 B-Body. The calipers, pads and rotor are from a 03-07 Liberty. The caliper bracket is from a 1995 Grand Cherokee. The bracket must be modified to work on all 8.75 rears. The brackets are all the same on the Liberty, Grand Cherokee and the Wrangler. Liberty rotors, calipers and pads are much beefier. Any rear disc brake set-up is way better than drums from the 60's an 70's... 50 plus yrs ago.
Swap in 2012

This is the 95 Grand Cherokee Set-up [all from the junk yard] on
The A-Body 8.75 rear. On my 75 Scamp, the up-grade to the Liberty stuff is 100% bolt-on.
[I did not change my proportioning valve]
U will if your car came with drums up front.
