I have a 91 XJ 4.0 auto... I got not too long ago so I would not have to use my saturn in the bad weather. New exhause, shocks, bit of a spring makeover (put the main leaf from a 3in lift pack in the stock pack). through a set of 31s from a friend on it and it should be good to go. should be I say because durring the first snow storm i tapped the brakes, the fronts locked and the rears did nothing. bounced it off a guard rail. not major damage so I got it home, rebuild the rear brakes and they seemed ok for about 2 miles. just finnished redoing the rears with all new parts. new hardware, adjusters, shoes and drums.
adjusted them tight then backed off by less than a full turn. backed it down the driveway and I have the same problem. I know the brakes are applying but there is very little presure to the wheels.
think all that is left is to upgrade the master and booster to one from a newer XJ and replace the one rubber line between the body and the axle.
any other ideas would be apreciated because I am sick of keeping my jeep in for the bad weather and making my little car of plastic hanle the snow.
