I used a master and booster out of a V* ZJ. The master could stand to be a little bit bigger bore, but not bad. But I have the WJ brakes on the rear to, which a seat of the pants measuring makes them about twice as good as the ZJ rear disc

 

Did you weld brackets on to mount the Calipers on the rear?

 

Yes I did. Made them from 1/2" steel

 

 

Are those wj front calipers?

 

Nice thread. I really like the approach you've taken on your rig. Has become one of my favorite builds to follow. Next I want you to get an anti-rock on there so I can copy your setup of having an outboard trackbar mount with an anti-rock

Thank you. This jeep has come a long ways..
I'm not to sure about the anti rock

 

No, those are the rear calipers and disc on a rear axle

 

Bummer, lol. I was like **** he's got badass Calipers on the rear. Not that I think wj Calipers are that bad *** but I think the fronts in the tear could put something on the table worth eating.
ever since you mentioned wj Calipers my minds be wondering why not 1/2ton Chevy Calipers Eldorado Calipers

 

Well, it might not all be said and done on that. I am going to take the plunge and go to 40s. I am thinking that the WJ brakes might not handle that so well. We shall see. If not, yes the fronts will go on the rear and I will get something to make it a balanced system with a 70/30 match

 

I wouldn't mind 50 50 or 60/40

 

So figured mys well make it fresh akobono and new pads. These rotors are nearly new.


Closer look at frame side track bracket it's 2.5x2.5x.25 tube the seam side cut out

options to run zj pitman if alittle flatter steering angle is wanted

 

My angle is still a little steep, however if your geometry is right on you don't notice it and it will drive just about like factory

 

Yes or if it gwos alittle with 14" coilovers.
