I have owned K-H 4 piston brakes on my 68 FSFB for years and the only issue I have with them is the pistons stick. Change seals on the pistons and replace any pitted pistons. This is paramount to getting good braking on the front, and as other said, a proportioning value is absolutely...

I have a set from my '68 cuda. I converted to the '73+ 11.75" rotors/calipers so I don't need them. And I have many extra pistons for the calipers, some are useable. PM if interested.

Above is the Right side. Here is a better shot.

Here are photos of the cables installed on the Liberty rear disk brakes.

Here are the Part Numbers: Right/rear – part #97369 – Overall length of wire and fittings = 74-1/2” / Outer housing mounting length = 58-3/8” - $35.00 each Left/rear – part #97368 – Overall length of wire and fittings = 35-3/8” / Outer housing mounting length = 19-1/4” - $30.00 each I would...

Well, after 6 months of consulting work this year, I finally had time to finish the brakes and get new wheels and tires on the Cuda. The photo is not great as you really can't see much of the brakes due to the reflection off the rims, but they do look good. I just ordered parking brake cables...

My FS FB came stock with K-H front disks. They were manual so no PB issues, but I did find that you had to change brake fluid frequently (yearly) to avoid piston corrosion and sticking that caused poor braking. I replaced many pistons over the years until I converted to '73+ brakes. Heavier...

If you have part numbers of lengths for the '73 to '76 vehicles, I am sure someone will appreciate that info. My '68 should be happy with the ones I ordered. Thanks!

Thanks to MoparMat2000, and to Bruin Brake Cables, here are the part numbers for the cables needed to connect the Jeep/Ford rear parking brake levers to the Mopar a-body emergency brake system. Right/rear – part #97369 – Overall length of wire and fittings = 74-1/2” / Outer housing mounting...

MoparMat2000 I look through the massive 8.8 rear thread and found your comments about using Bruin Brake Cable to fabricate replacement cables with the correct Ford couplers. I e-mailed them with the info from the thread and hopefully will hear back shortly. This will be a very nice way to...

That is probably correct, or at least the configuration is the same. The basic components are identical to an Escape rear disk brake system. Calipers, rotors, and other parts interchange per multiple parts sites like Rock Auto. So this means that service parts are going to be available for...

Although I started my conversion to rear disk brakes quite a while ago, I finally got everything done. I used the Jeep brake lines as is and adapted the metric ferrules to SAE by cutting off the metric ones. Simple. Then just bend and straighten as needed. The mount for the hose is an issue...

Mopar Action Oct 2018 issue just came out with the final details of the rear disk brake instillation. Most of the details are straight forward. Need to find a 3/8"-24 to SAE (JIC)3/16" 37° flair fitting. But that should be easy to locate. Jegs/Summit have the fitting in 3/8" to AN3. I need...

I would be good to have some solid information on Green Bearings. Especially how the design changed to improve bearing life. Having a product fail early in its introduction is bad for image. So my experience Early On keeps me from even thinking about them. I would also like Richard...

Just purchased the entire rear disk brake system from a 2007 Liberty for $60 at U Pull And Pay in Denver. The brakes looked like they were recently done, so I may use them as is. I will reseal them just to be sure. The mounts are 4 bolt but the same pattern as the 8-3/4 5 bolt so a new hole...

The Jeep Liberty manual is available at: http://www.colorado4wheel.com/manuals/Jeep/KJ/2005JeepKJServiceManual.pdf

Yes, See Mopar Action Aug 2018

Mopar axle flanges apparently have remained unchanged for years. The Liberty flange bolt pattern should work for 8 1/4, 8 3/4, 9 1/4 and Dana rear ends. What needs to be addressed is the off-set of the mount to account for different axle flange dimensions. I hope M/A addresses this question...

I am researching the rear disk brake conversion shown in Mopar Action August 2018 issue. The conversion looks like it will work as stated and give great low cost brakes with reduced weight. I currently run B-Body drums, 11x3", so they are heavy but do work well. The front brakes are the late...
