I have a Jeep comanche 1992 with Ford 8.8 rear disk brake axle and front is a custom G2 dana 44 with Jeep WJ knuckles and brakes.
Setup so far:
-late model xj large brake booster
-Dodge Durango 1.125 bore master cylinder
-factory comanche proportioning valve with rear load leveling valve held wide open for max braking power.
-ford 8.8 disk brake rear axle
-Jeep WJ front calipers and rotors.
Brake pedal is a bit stiff but nothing bad at all. Problem is I can mash it to the floor and brakes don’t lock up. I have factory 2012 Jeep jk rubicon wheels and tires 255/75r17 I believe. Should I be able to lock these up? It stops good but I really expected the rear to lock up with the tire and brake combination on the comanche at a minimum.
To me it seems I’m bottoming out the master cylinder but this is my first custom brake setup and I’m unsure if that could be a possibility with this setup or not.
Thanks for any input and help anyone can give.
