Thanks for the write up! Do you know if it will work by just removing the abs fuses and relays? Or does the whole module need to be pulled? I'll probably get around to it eventually

I've seen some people just pull the fuse and relay but I've heard that can cause issues with getting trapped air into the ABS pump somehow? Don't quote me, I'm not 100% sure

Okay thanks, maybe I'll just grab a few more parts and do right the first time around so I don't have to worry

I'd recommend that! The brake lines are like $25, and the prop valve from U Pull was $6

She's sitting on her own weight again. Filled gear oil with MOPAR 75w-140 and I'm cutting a 3" hole in my firewall.... Any ideas why?

Just took it for a test drive and it has some vibes at 20-30 MPH so it'll be getting my already built 231 with SYE. So much better to sit level.

My 95 XJ is getting a Dana 44 front and 9" rear out of an f-150. That's a slow build, planning to run coil overs now, a lot of big plans for that one. My ZJ is in the process of being sold and my parts jeep is 80% picked apart. Lol

I've got too many jeeps. Lol I needed a daily so I bought the ZJ but I've always been more comfortable with an XJ. Now that I have my DD XJ I have to sell the ZJ.
