everything is ready, brake booster & master cylinder, brake tube, flaring tool, brake fluid, tools etc.
stock brake booster
My brake pedal connection to booster rod is different than one I read from write-up.
It has just a clip, instead of bolt.
Old brake fluid is out
see then stock, old and leaky one
XJ single and WJ dual diaphragm boosters met once
rod length - XJ
rod length - WJ
a bit of dust mud etc
cleaned well, where I can reach to, there were clean
Rod has 6mm (1/4") length difference, need an spacer. Instead of spacer, I use a little bigger nut on thread and used a foam as a gap filler
seam above booster is massaged up and test fit
fit and tight, brake switch working
making tube template
tube ends flared, master cylinder end - bubble & proportioning valve end - double flare
flared and bent, ready made tube
fit
both tubes made and tightened at master cylinder, instead of bench bleeding of master cylinder,
- 2 clear hoses connected to the ends of tubes and
- other ends of clear hoses were in brake fluid in coke bottle
- added brake fluid in reservoir
then bleed master cylinder till no air bubbles in coke bottle
bottom ends tightened
seam massaged back, there is little cap ~ 5-6mm
Rear brake hose replaced with longer one.
