80 CJ7 has ford pad on front. I believe the axle is 78-79 jeep. the jeep pads are made the same but about 1" to short. It has 6 bolt calipers. Will I need to find ford calipers that fit the brackets? the rotors are 1 1/8" as well.

Sunds like a nice upgrade.

Pictures??
 
Using the Tapatalk app on a cell phone is a great way to do pictures. One of the guys here mentioned it so I tried it and it really works.
 
Ok.. More problems. I got the calipers today. Look to be the same as on the jeep. The problem is the caliper and pad lack a good 1/16" going over the rotors. I know they changes rotors from 1 1/8" to 7/8" in late 78. Anyone know when they did that if the 7/8" rotors had to be 2 bolt caliper mount?. Again mine are 6 bolt mount and 1 1/8" rotors. Are all pad the same thickness?
