Odd question about rear disc conversion

[bones66]

hey all i am thinking of doing a rear disc conversion on my 1994 explorer. i know the easy way is to grab a rear end out of a junkyard but i have already done gears and strengthening beams in my rear end and really want to keep it. so i was looking to get the rear discs off a 95+ and figured a quick call to oreillys should solve that but i cannot find the rear caliper mounting brackets anywhere! i have called every parts store in town and even resorted to calling the ford dealership *gag* and sure enough they have them but want just over 500 for the brackets. so my question is this. i do not care about having e-brakes never reinstalled the cable after my lift and couldnt be bothered so is it possible to use the front disc setup in the rear? aka the front mounting brackets and calipers and so forth. if any of you have ever heard of this i would love to hear about it. thank you

WOW, $71?!?!?! I could of spent less then $20 from the junk Yard for both, Next time you need a factory part, that is not electronic, go to ANY junk yard, they should have many 2nd Gen Explorers.
