I finished this swap several days ago but no pressure is building in the brakes. There's no leaks and I've bled the brakes several times and put in new master cylinder and booster but still nothing and there's no clogs because I'm getting fluid from from all four lines. Have any of you guys that have done this swap had this problem? Any ideas will help because I'm stumped.

I had that that problem. First my master cylinder was bad. I put my new master cylinder in and still had the problem. I had to re bench bleed the master cylinder. Then I had to bleed all my lines several times. Checked the fittings for leaks?

I got a master cylinder and booster from a 1990 cherokee and then took out the old accumulator and then everything else pretty much bolts up. The hard part is running the lines. I just used some of the old lines and made new ones from the porportioning to the left front and from the master cylinder to the porportioning valve.
