ive tried them on the 1990, and they fit fine. i dont think its the rotors, but it could be.
ive cross checked part numbers with diff years too. what would you recomend to find the right ones, if they are wrong. but like i said, they fit on the 1990 just fine.

check both hubs, the 1990 ones might have different hubs, if you wer eto take them out and sit them side to side one would be taller. that may be your problem. i dont know how many times at the shop ive blasted brakes on jeeps and gotten the wrong rotors and had that exact problem.

something is definatly off there. also, no need to look for a newer D30, just get some shafts out of a TJ and put them in.

i just remembered that there WERE rotors on the jeep when i got it. i will try to find them, and compare them with the ones i have now. I'll figure it out. i wasted lots of money on those damned washers...(smashes head on desk)

oooook, chrome, and adam called it. i have the wrong ones. how do i go about getting the CORRECT ones? what year do i order for? i hope autozone will let me return, ive lost the reciept. the boxes do say DURALAST on them though.
anyways, what year shall i order for? or is there no specific year...just diff thicknesses?

i don't know what year the axle is. it inst the original. the original is sitting beside the truck. the axle in there is a disco D30, and looks very similar to the 1990 one, so i ordered rotors for a 1990. thats not right as we know now. so what should i ask for when ordering?

Look at the calipers and or knuckles. They changed with the hubs I believe. Are they the same as the 95 ones?

I have not been out to look at anything yet, but i just researched a little on NAPA, with part numbers. the 1990, 1995, and 1999 cherokees all had the same part #'s. The 1988 had different part #, but ive already returned a set of rotors to autozone for 88 because they wouldnt work with the axle i have now (they were the kinds that had the lugs pressed onto them already). i know im not being specific enough. im sorry.
ALSO, i am using the calipers that were on the 1990. the axles seem to be so similar, except for this. could it be different shafts in the axle that are causing this?
I just measured the rotors. the old one is .5" thick where it touches the hub, and the new one is .25" thick.
