The kit shown is fitted to a D44 so the only difference I had to do for the TJ was design special length hand brake cables and to fit between the bracketry on the axle. There are three different sets of handbrake cables with two for the XJ's, ( pre and post 97 ), and all TJ's. You get the ones suited to your Jeep when you order from them.

I've been told the same thing, but i guess it would only be true if you are comparing two equal systems, and the rear drums on xj and tj jeeps are rather small and only have a single brake cylinder, and I'd reckon that the falcon brakes are not only disks but are bigger and better as well.
