    Where did you get your front disc conversion?

    I got mine at Magnumforce because I needed the spindles, balljoints, and upper arm. It came out to $1700 or so, and I got all this:

    Should Wilwood calipers be doing this?

    I would love to get it ready, but I found a new problem - the gas tank is leaking after about 10gal of gas gets into it. Assuming I get an alignment and my gas tank looked at, I might have it there by Saturday. I will definitely be there, I just don't know whether it'll be in the Jeep or the...

    Should Wilwood calipers be doing this?

    These are the Dynalite forged fixed calipers, they don't float. There's no pressure from the master, I confirmed that by popping a bleed screw and the fluid did not shoot out. The wheel turns about 3-4 times, and the rotor without the wheel on it turns maybe 1/2 a turn. For reference, each...

    I'm tryig to get my Wilwoods buttoned up...

    So I have some updated results. As I said before, I removed the residual valve with little help. Well, today I jacked the entire car up (level) and spun the wheels with my hands. The rear wheels spun 1.75-2.5 times before stopping, and the front spun 3-4 times before stopping. Does that...

    I'm tryig to get my Wilwoods buttoned up...

    Well, I removed the residual valve yesterday. I noticed a bit of a difference, but I am still getting that brake drag. I guess the best thing today is to make sure the rear shoes are just barely dragging the rear drums, right? Also, I am going to check the front calipers. Since they're fixed...

    no problem, man. I wasn't trying to be condascending, I just wanted to clarify what I had compared to what you had, because I got confused at the wiring. Thanks very much for your help though

    What wiring schematics? Here's what I run, just with the prop valve and residual valve in opposite places in the line: I have, however, heard of people who aren't running the residual valve with their 10" drums and they're having no problems.

    The new pushrod comes with (or should come with) the master cylinder. You'll need it as the original one's a bit different in its integration. As for the residual valve, I'll let you know tomorrow, I am pulling mine out and seeing whether I need it in there or not.

    I'm tryig to get my Wilwoods buttoned up...

    Thanks for the congrats. I think talking to Wilwood is the next step. Unless their master already has a residual valve, the purpose is to keep the rear brakes from locking? I dunno, really, but I read from their site that this is required in the drum brake circuit: I checked for that...
