I have a 95 XJ and recentely replaed the MC/power booster/pressure differential valve/ bled the system multiple times-- and STILL no front brakes--- can't figure it out-- I checked all the lines and no leaks that I can see. There is a weird leak coming from the frame on the driver's side. Not sure from where, but... who knows?:flamemad:


Any help would be greatly appreciated- searching through the forums produced no results.


I am on the verge of taking it to a shop and coughing up the dough.

Thanks in advance and any help is greatly appreciated.:helpme:

Did you bench bleed the MC before installing it? Usually that needs to be done before bleeding in car.

Did you replace caplipers? Possibly installing the R one on the Left side and visa versa? Just a thought.

Is the leak break fluid ?

I didn't replace the calipers- did bench bleed the MC- and I am 99% on the leak being brake fluid.

Am I missing something with concern to the ABS? I know the front brakes(discs) are the only thing affected by the ABS- is there any possibility that it could be fuse/computer related in that respect?

Figured it out-- bad MC and leaky proportioning valve-

Thanks for all the help and responses.
