I got my 11" backing plates on Ebay, I think I searched Broncho brakes. I ended up with plates from a dana 44 off of a '72 Broncho. Bolted right on. If I remember right cost about $20 but shipping doubled it! Got new wheel cylinders at NAPA for about $15 ea. Hope this helps you out. Jerry Martin : How much better are 11" brake for my 47 CJ2A Jeep? Also, This jeep will be use as a regular Car. I hear the 11" backing plate is hard to come by, is this ture? : Tim C.
