it's not a hard or expensive fix, just replace it and know for sure

speed bleeders will make it much easier to bleed ;) I have speed bleeders all around and it is nice

ok, after much frustration I have figured it out. There is no pivot pin. I guess since I have the ABS 91' cherokee the parking brake bracket has no pin. It has a bent edge that hooks into the shoe. So you have to magically hold that in (cause if it falls out you have to redo it), hold the...

it talks of some pivot pin? And it seems like it is on the upper part of the rear shoe (secondary). Where is this pin?! There is only a pin on the bottom portion of the shoe. I'm lost! I haven't touched the other drum but that doesn't even help with this STUPID DAMN PIVOT PIN!!!! :explosion

well I found one leaking wheel cylinder so I'm replacing both. Also, I never found the U-Clip that the FSM lists. Is it possible to work without it? And for the parkign brake, it is attached to this big plate that just hangs there now, am I supposed to get that off the parking brake line? I...

well I guess that would be one.

This will be my first time replacing my drum hardware and pads because I simply hate drums and working on them. Are there any special tools I'll need or instructions?

you can disable the ABS portion to where the lights will say you have an ABS problem. But you can't disable the pump. If I recall correctly, it's a block fuse for the ABS disable. But, I would recommend you do the work to switch to a master cylinder system. I would not trust my life to the...

I just removed the filter. I put a rag around the lines so it didn't spray everywhere.

well the pedal did not feel like a normal pedal still. It got firmer at the end of the travel, so I wasn't able to totally floor it. I know I gotta rebuild the back brakes, do they sell kits for that? As for the front caliper the pads are wearing at an angle, so one side of the pad has more...

91 has the shitty ABS. If you have the big black ball accumulator on your firewall you have it. Or on your passenger side you will have a silver pump under a cover.

ok, so I did some testing. I found that if I squeeze the back brake line to where there is little to no flow the brake pedal becomes firmer. If I do the same to the front left caliper (the one I changed) the pedal becomes firmer. If I do it to the front right caliper nothing changes. So this...

don't worry about it. The older systems were a problem because of the brake design with the pump and accumulator. If I recall correctly you still have a master cylinder. You should be fine.

looks like some wood or somethin under that tire could have gotten you out. Just had to do a little diggin

personally I think the radiator is an easier access for the main hose. The drain plug is on the passenger side of the radiator and on the side of the radiator at the bottom.

thanks for the help. This is truely frustrating.

I don't have access to a vice though :(

You'll be happy you did it. I had a poorly performing ABS on my 91' that would intermitently go out and I had too many scares. From the pedal being as hard as a rock to having no brakes.

front skid still avail?

front skid still available?
