Dutchman sells the Explorer style kit too and can hook you up, another option is the caddy style calipers but I don't think they work that great, I've used them. I've used both and I prefer the Explorer style setup in terms of braking capability but neither e-brake works that great...the explorer style gives you less headaches, IMHO.

I just got done with a d60 5 on 5.5 disc conversion on my YJ. I used a warn full floating kit, and made my own caliper mounting brackets out of grand wagoneer front mounting brackets. I'm not running an e-brake, just a line lock. e-mail me if you want more info or some pics

I used the Lincoln disc set up. You have to weld Ford ends on housing, and machine the axles to fit the rotor, but it works great. And the e-brake works good too.:D
