    Brake booster and MC swap issue

    I'll try that next time I mess with it. Just to make sure I'm not an idiot. The lines on the MC the front one goes to the front brakes and the rear go to the rear brakes? That's how I have it in the MJ with the renix prop valve. In my 96 XJ the front line goes to the rear brakes and the rear...

    Brake booster and MC swap issue

    So the noise is come from the booster not the MC like I thought. The noise is coming from the vacuum line. If i pull the line and plug it with my finger it wont do it. Probably a bad booster like suggested before. Would a bad booster cause the brakes to act weird like air in the lines? I...

    Brake booster and MC swap issue

    Very good to know. The tears were completely empty do to the axle swap. I set the pinion angle perfect (pointed up do to sye) so they very well could have air trapped. I'll take a look!

    Brake booster and MC swap issue

    Lol not a problem. I was thinking something was misunderstood. I'll crack the proportioning valve and see if air comes out. Bleed the system again and also change the bleeder valves. If that doesnt work I just order another brand new MC. So then I'll swap that. If that doesnt work I'll...

    Brake booster and MC swap issue

    Yes it is lifted. I had to replace ebrake cables also. I lifted it 5.5", swapped the dana 44 and all brake lines. Hence the issue it tracking the problem. It's all been messed with in the last 2 months. You think the rear pads aren't adjusted correctly? Causing the peddle feel?

    Brake booster and MC swap issue

    No I have a dana 44 with drums. I just upgraded the MC and booster to a 96 XJ. My other jeep XJ I did a rear disc conversion and upgraded the spring. Since my MJ is drum in the rear that's why I was asking if I should do the spring? I never heard of doing it in any of the mc booster...

    Brake booster and MC swap issue

    Ok I got an extra gasket. The MC came with one and the booster came with one. I'll swap it out and see before completely changing out the MC.

    Brake booster and MC swap issue

    Well I think the sound is inside the MC. Waiting on my wife because I can push the pedal and run to the front in time. Also I got those quick bleeders so i could bleed them myself. Tried to save myself from the peanut gallery. "How long will this take" "my leg is tired". Anyways gonna...

    Brake booster and MC swap issue

    I didnt adjust either. I did add a 1/4" spacer between the booster and fire wall so I didnt need to trim the fire wall. Also by doing that the length of the rod inside the cab would be the same. If I didnt the pedal all the way up would have a 1/4" of pressure into the booster. I also didnt...

    Brake booster and MC swap issue

    I'll try to crack the valve. I did the rear disc brakes on my xj and upgraded the spring. Does the ZJ spring fit in the old style propotioning valve? I did not adjust any pushrod. Where are these located?

    Brake booster and MC swap issue

    Damn ok. Its brand new but who knows. I'll take it back and get another new one. I just bled them again and still the same. I'll try it again in a couple days and see if it just has that much air. Crazy I've put like 80oz through it now. Thanks

    Brake booster and MC swap issue

    Hey guys I have a 87 MJ that I swapped a 96 booster and MC into. I just took it for a drive and when pushing the brake I get nothing until the last inch or so then it goes full brake. Like lock the tires up lol. The booster and MC were new. I left the original praportioning valve. Bench...
