I am replacing my stock '88 Xj axles (D30/D35) with my 1997 Xj axles (D30/C8.25 drum) because, I am transferring my lift to the '88 Xj and need the 4.10 gear set I installed in the 1997 axles. Brake system improvements are part of this to accommodate the larger 31" tires.
I have a 1995 dual diaphragm vacuum booster (OE p/n - 52008647), master cylinder and proportioning valve from an ABS Xj (i.e., D35 rear drum system) vehicle. In turn, I strongly suspect the proportioning valve is inadequate but, do not know for certain. Can anyone assist me in this regard?
If the 1995 proportioning valve is inadequate for the C8.25 rear drum brake system I have two options I need to evaluate:
1 - The OE proportioning valve (OE p/n - 5212 9025) from www.teamcherokee.com for $45.
2 - An adjustable proportioning valve that may be more useful when I convert the C8.25 to disc brakes (...if ever).
Please advise.
