    Hello all! I have a few questions I can't seem to find the information for. Seems like the 11 inch brake question has been hammered out but it's still a minefield out there. I got a free set of 70 ish wagoneer axles and I'm hoping to use the brakes on my 57 cj5. As far as I can tell the wagoneer 11 inch brakes are similar or the same? As the later cj5 drums. Is there anything different? I was planning on using the wheel cylinders from a 70s drum cj5 for the better bore size. As far as brake hoses, will the stock length work? My CJ has the standard angled style currently. My hubs are thankfully not swedged and I was able to fit one of the 11 inch drums on without issue.
