I thought it was worth making a new thread, rather than letting the other one stray completely off course, so apologies in advance if this appears to be covering old ground. I've looked at http://www.4x4wire.com/jeep/tech/brakes/xjhoseext02/ and am just getting confused.
Can anyone clarify things for me: when converting to ZJ rear discs, do you need to change over the hoses and e-brake cables, or is it an option?
If I've got it right, the ZJ handbrake cable has a different end on to XJ cables, and is shorter: this means that you either have to buy new ones or shorten and modify the originals, as GoJeep did. Is this correct?
What about the standard hoses though? If you've got no lift, I can't see the necessity of changing the soft hose lines - can anyone please explain why I need to change them, or is it possible to just reuse the originals?
TIA
BTW, 1993 XJ, 8.25
