As im running brake lines, im thinking about something.
1st off - no abs.
So the line feeding the rear drops to the diff where it hits a tee that goes to each wheel. Simple and straightforward.
Now on the front, each wheel brake is fed by a separate flex. I'm assuming that is because of the...
Replaced the rear shoes and drums on the 75 in july. New oem drums, shoes from $or.
For the past two months now ive been chasing something that sounds metallic eating something else metallic. Ive been in there no fewer than 4 times looking for something out of place...nothing is showing wear and...
Is there a trick I’m not doing?
Before this project I had brakes. Good pedal, even stopping.
New parts installed:
Dual reservoir master cylinder/JTO adapter, bench bled.
Unknown year front end with Wilwood disc brakes, braided lines, good pads.
I made a front hardline from the master to a...
It seems the OEM booster for the early model HDJ has been discontinued.

Has anyone fit another part number from another year? Partsouq does not list an alternate or aftermarket.
Thanks,

For sale is my 100 series' original 07/1998 manufacture date brake master cylinder with booster in very nice condition. While I had it out doing my diesel swap (the bore was extremely clean without scuffs or other blemishes) I replaced the piston assembly with brand new Factory parts and it went...
Converted my rig to four-wheel power disc brakes. Have all the parts for the rear drum brakes. $200 takes it all, plus you have to pay shipping since parts are heavy. One wheel cylinder was leaking badly, so it will have to be rebuilt. Those shoes are oily but they will clean up or can be...
I know the front spring is suppose to be behind the shoes and the back spring in front but why? I have not seen this on other cars with drum brakes. Just curious.
Thanks
We were out camping this past weekend and I managed to run my starter battery flat.
Anyway, we were packing up to leave camp Sunday night and I noticed the dome light was dark.
Hmmm...so putting the foot on the brake and pressing start...nothing; not even a clicking sound.
No problem! I jumper...
Had a lot harder time on my drivers side than passenger side with rust when doing the tear down for front wheel bearings. Looks like the brake dust shield plastic shoulder has separated from the metal neck. I’m thinking water is getting in and living there and rusting everything. Logical...
I have a 2014 LX 570. Which tire should I be bleeding first? Has anyone bled the LX 570 brake fluid without taking the tire off? I'm curious if it's even possible. Thank you so much!
Have three sets available. All from 60's with the riveted junction block but will work just fine on 40's as well (with a 60 hose) Two are zero rust/damage that would be perfect to blast/paint for a resto. One of the third pair is nice and the other has some damage from the axle being set down on...
Below the scheme of the wiring for the parking brake. I find all the wires back on my car. But, I have a question about the scheme, it does not make sense to me and also does the behavior when I connect make no sense.
The light gets feed from LR. Then continues through either one of the...
In my search for a decent 100 series, I ran in to a truck looks to have a different brake booster, see image.
I was in the understandeing all 100 series came with a electric pump as a brake booster.
But is anyone familiar with the option shown in the picture?
Thanks,
I was taking out the wheel spacers yesterday and noticed this nozzle that seems like something should go in, but couldn’t find a dangling line. For good measure, I compared the driver’s side too. Does anyone know what it’s for?
On my 96 80 series I have a dim brake light on side.
The trailer wiring in not the cause (my initial suspicion), standard 1157 bulb is good, wiring harness plugs are all clean and intact, and can’t seem to find a compromised ground. All other lights are the correct level of brightness.
Any...
More mechanically educated compatriots, any idea on why the brakes look like they're low on fluid after pressing the pedal a few times, but return to full if the vehicle sits a while? Bad master? Something else? There is inconsistent amounts of dead play in the pedal before the brakes engage...
Hi all
On a quest for better brakes i'm looking at the Terrain Tamer booster: 4WD Heavy Duty Brake Booster: Rated #1 [2023] - Terrain Tamer - https://www.terraintamer.com/4wd-products/brake-catalogue/heavy-duty-brake-booster
It claims 30% better braking, which is great, but I'm trying to...
