Pieter -

Cape International sells disks specifically designed to work with the
Jag caliper conversion.  Just buy a set of disks from them.  The
spacing is slightly off with this disc also but with 1/8" spacer on
the inside it will bring the track right in line original spec.

www.cape-international.com

They also sell the hand brake rods, which are custom for the Jag rear
brake caliper.  I think the mounts are identical to the DW kit, so
Cape's rods should be very helpful.  I have the cape kit on my BJ8,
love it.
