Long story short - swapped a '99 ZJ booster/master cylinder, and put new braided SS lines up front of my '89 XJ. 3 out of 4 fittings are leaking out the top where the tube comes through. Maybe #4 is slow?
Is my double-flare technique too heavy on the finish? The first flare is the easy part, but I'm thinking that I went too deep on the inside flare and it isn't mating with the inner "cone" parts of the prop valve and the SS lines. I'm using a junk flaring kit, but I think it's my skillz. I wish I would have taken pics, but I always get too busy to remember the camera.
BTW - the braking has already improved!
