4 wheel front hubs on 2 wheel drive
Hi all! This is my first post here so please forgive me if this is on the wrong side.
I recently bought a 1992 two wheel drive XJ. The guy I bought it from gave me a brand new set of front wheel bearing/hub assemblies. He said something about them allowing me to have more front rotor options. After I opened them I realized they are for a 4 wheel drive XJ. Can these actually be used on my 2 wheel drive? I have yet to pull the wheels off and try and compare them. I need to order new brake rotors and pads but want to know if I can use these 4 wheel hubs before I order them.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the response!
Can you elaborate on what a "stub shave" is? What I have are complete hub assemblies.
Edit:
After looking up the part number for the hubs I have it seems they are for a 99-01 Cherokee. Upon some quick googling it seems these will bolt on fine and all I need to do is buy the appropriate cast rotors. Can I get confirmation on that?
Thanks again.

Sorry about that. I meant stub shaft. The unit bearing is assembled in two halves. The stub shaft of the front axle shaft holds it together. I believe the 2WD has some sort of device that resembles a stub shaft that acts the same
