    Default Well I'll be dipped...Jeep XJ brakes don't drag no mo


    I've been fighting dragging brakes on my !996 Jeep Cherokee since I started that project. And finally I got it. Previously I've replaced one of the calipers, and ll of the brakes, and both rubber lines too, and even the master cylinder. Not I finally figured out that there's an adjustment in the brake booster, which I adjusted! doh Who'd a thunk, it fixed the problem. Backed off the little plunger thingy in the pic, and no more hot brakes! yay

    Just bought one of these to make sure there’s not any more room for adjustment. I’m just happy I finally figured out why both fronts were getting hot after medium drive. Short drives were not a problem, well at least not noticeable.

    That's the kinda info you find in factory service manuals, same lacking info problem I had timing the Cadillac off cylinder #1 when it needed to be timed off cylinder #6. Who would know that unless you were a factory Cadillac mechanic.
