Default Before replacing my Bendix I want to verify some information!

I've seen a bunch of replacement write ups for this swap and they all seem to use a different donor system. From what I've gathered, the Booster and Master from a WJ is my best bet as far as upgrade and ease of installation goes, and all I need are those parts and to bend new lines. That just seems like a deceitfully small parts list.

Again, just wanted to verify before I go pulling. I tried a search but got more than I asked for -- everyone has a write up it seems.

This is the write up I was going to use, does anyone have anything to add?:

Thanks!

I used one off a ZJ The brake lines that came with it were easier to route to the proportioning valve without any cutting and minor bending. If I remember correctly the 96+ XJ one had the proportioning valve attached to the master cylinder. It required a little more modification then the ZJ one. As far as the WJ one I didn't get a chance to examine the situation. There wasn't any at the junk yard that day.

I used a WJ and it's fine.
