I just pulled everything from the knuckles out off of a late 70's Power Wagon. The driver's side is already machined and drilled so you only have to pay to do the passenger side. Rebuilt calipers were $19/each, cost me about $100 for the ball joints and labor. If you've got access to a press you'll save a bunch. $20 to turn the rotors, $25 for pads. The banjo bolts off the CJ outers don't appear to fit, I'll hit the parts store for those soon.

Bob Roggy sells the flat top knuckles, machined and ready to go.
Im not sure what he is charging, but he is usually cheaper than anyone else.
He also has good prices on steering arms.
give him a call.

If it is the International flat top knuckle 8 bolt setup so that you can use all of your existing outers I can get A set. I can have them shipped to you via UPS. I can find out today how much and when I can get them to you.

I've got a 77 f250 housing and knuckles under my jeep. The knuckles are flat top and have an 8 bolt pattern. I am running a scout spindle/hub (warn conversion)/rotor, chevy calipers and chevy mounts (had to weld up the holes on the caliper bracket and redrill them to 8 hole). Works good, but I don't like having so many different donor vehicles.
