    Switching to organic pads will make a big difference.

    My 1971 cj5 has the R&P 4wd disc brake kit on it. I was told that the fronts are the same as a 1975 Chevy K5 blazer 1/2 ton. The rear discs are from a S10 blazer 1/4 ton. I would like to put organic pads all the way around, however I can only find them for the fronts. Anyone with a part number would be greatly appreciated.

    No grinding Necessary. Its a bolt on application. I've done two so far. parts are easy to get. and the disc brakes work great. I run 16inch stock wheels, no clearance issues.
