Hey cruiser did the wj lines thread into your stock proportioning valve?
They don't thread up in mine. The hole on the valve closest to the fire wall is bigger and has courser threads.

Got the master mounted and I got the lines bent and hooked up after I had to change the ends to the renix proportioning valve. One of my flares was bad and it leaked so I gotta pick up new lines. Now I got to go to work, so close but so far lol

Got the swap done, want to bleed the brakes one more time for good measure but so far so good.
Definitely more braking power and no more noisey air leaks from my old booster. All in all the swap was well worth the 40$ I payed in booster, master, brake fluid, and new lines.

Hmm I checked the thickness of the flat part on both and it was good, I also put a multi meter on it and got continuity when I pulled the switch down, maybe I put the wires on wrong lol...does the brown connector go to the back or the tabs off the side?

Doesn't matter where you put the wires.
Don't tighten the through bolt all the way down tight. That's why there's a jamb nut.

Note to self, never forget to disconnect battery when working on jeep...lol
So I had to lock em up today, Toyota driver veered into my lane a bit, maybe I was drifting over a bit too(resedential neighborhood) I'm absolutely positive if I hadn't have done this swap I would have plowed into the front of that thing.(prays to god thanking him)
Need to pay more attention, we both would have been at fault, he was on his phone and driving in the middle of the road and I was pulling towards the middle of the road to turn right into a path I have to drive down for work. I felt like an idiot but am very glad nothing bad happened and it won't again(at least from me being an idiot and not someone else)
Either way all four of my tiers did a little screetch and stoped me almost immediately. The front of that Toyota would have been wrapped around my winch and bumper if it wasn't for this swap. My jeep has never stopped that well hard braking before.
