Default 1992 xj
Has 33's and 6.5" lift. Very firm pedal but will not stop on a downhill. New rotors and pads. Any ideas?

How do you check the booster? The brakes grab but just seem to shudder at low speeds downhill.

Check that the vacuum hose is intact

The brakes shudder?? Something isn't right here. You need to do a full inspection, I can't see from here.

You cleaned the oil off the rotors, right? Lol

Yes I did. I'll pull them apart and take a look. I'll also check the hose. Thanks!
