Got my kit from Big David on Friday. Looks great, even included good brake pads. I'll be installing it along with doing some other work, including 3" lift, wheels/tires etc. So it will be good timing to add this to the project. And thanks for the reference b16gsr!
Thanks!
Thanks!

You are making a lot of people safer.

No, I don't lick fish.
After driving my buddy's 98 V8 ZJ with 33" tires and it stopping on a dime with almost no pedal effort, then comparing that to my '92 XJ with 32" tires, drum brakes, and the factory single-diaphragm booster.... yeah, I'd have to agree. Takes a lot of braking effort, with sketchy results at times. Can't wait to install my 8.25 with discs now.... and the booster I got from the '96.

I have 5 sitting here. If I don't hear back from folks in the next few days, I'll start contacting other people who are waiting.
