Brake Rotors
A sturdy set of brake rotors is an integral component of any disc brake system. They enable your Jeep to stop quickly and effectively in high-performance conditions, while keeping its brakes cool during braking for optimal performance.
Our Dana 44 rear disc brake conversion kit is engineered specifically for 1972-1980 Scout 2s and 1/2 ton Travealls, providing you with an impressive upgrade that dramatically increases stopping power. The kit includes slotted rotors and calipers as well as all necessary hardware.
Brake Pads
Increase the stopping power of your Jeep Wrangler (TJ) (1997-2006) with Dana 44 rear axle without ABS by upgrading from drum brakes to discs. This performance brake kit includes 11 9/16” vented rotors, new brake pads, zinc-coated calipers with an integrated parking brake and other hardware.
The Wrangler Wrangler’s Dana 44 axle requires specially sized rotors, while pads are manufactured with a special compound to maximize heat dissipation for improved stopping power in all conditions. Furthermore, the calipers boast an impressively oversized piston for superior braking capacity and durability.
Brake Lines
Brake lines transport pressurized brake fluid from the master cylinder to the wheel calipers. Most cars and trucks use either 3/16-inch or 1/4-inch diameter brake lines; larger diameters tend to be more durable and easier to bend into shapes without needing special tools.
RT Off-Road’s complete brake line kit is precision engineered from factory original lines and CNC manufactured for accuracy, including fittings, flares and protective wrap (if equipped). This kit contains all metal brake lines necessary to replace your front master cylinder, left and right crossover lines, intermediate lines and rear axle/trailing arm lines.
Brake Hoses
When upgrading from rear drum brakes to discs, you should replace all existing rubber brake hoses. Over time, rubber hoses can swell and affect brake performance; braided stainless steel hoses are recommended for on-road applications.

They include dual drilled rotors to accept 5 on 4.5″ and 5.5″ bolt pattern, calipers, all necessary brackets to fit Dana 35, Dana 44 & Chrysler 8.25″ housings found in Jeep vehicles, plus an internal drum parking brake for superior holding power.
Brake Line Adapters
One of the best ways to increase your Jeep’s stopping power is by replacing heavy drum brakes with discs. TeraFlex’s dana 44 rear disc brake conversion kit makes this possible; it includes everything necessary for conversion from stock rear drums to discs – from a forged aluminum master cylinder and high-tech pads and calipers.
This kit also comes with the latest innovation in Jeep’s braking department: a Proportioning Valve. This valve allows you to customize your front and rear brakes for optimal torque and heat output for maximum performance. This kit offers the most economical yet effective way to upgrade your Jeep’s braking system.
Brake Master Cylinder
Your brake master cylinder is an essential element of your braking system. It converts the pressure you apply to the pedal into hydraulic pressure that pushes fluid from a reservoir through hoses and lines in your brake system.

In most vehicles, the master cylinder controls two hydraulic circuits that distribute brake fluid to both rear and front wheels. If one of these circuits malfunctions, it can cause the car to drift to one side when applying brakes – so each must function correctly.
