Default Rear brake question

I'm just being curious at this point but is there a way to convert the rear brakes on the xjs so that they are positioned out by the wheels? If so, what is needed? I'm looking at a rear brake job soon. I'm going to need to drop the whole cage out so I can address some other leaks at the same time. I was just wondering if this is possible.

I've converted all my car to outboard rear brakes. There are many advanages. I have a lot of parts left over for sale. I have an extra set of vented and non vented rear setups. PM me if your serious about a conversion.

You say you converted yours. You used your existing rear or just swapped the whole thing out.
