Thanks! Unfortunately my audio was a little off. Because it was the first video I edited with this software.

Thanks. Your welcome!

Thank you and your welcome

Thanks!

Thanks.

Technically you could probably just leave it like that and not weld it. And never have a issue. But I just would rather be safe then sorry.

Thanks. Yes the xj ones are to short. You can use the stock liberty ones though. For me the bolts ended being easier to track down in the small town I live in.

Yeah sorry. I did the editing on my phone and didn’t realize was that load 🤦🏼‍♂️

Your welcome!

That’s my plan.

I did something like the guy in this video. But unfortunately the go pro lost the footage🤦🏼‍♂️ kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gM5npsZlqczJpp8.html

And Thanks

I lost the footage for that part unfortunately. But they do have a few good videos on KZfaq on how to do the emergency brake setup on the Liberty’s.

And they do make a bracket for the XJ cable so you can adapt it to the Liberty ebrake setup.

Do you have a link to the bracket?

Thanks for the input. On my phone didn’t realize that was a issue.🤔

@@northernmichiganxjsoverlan3326 yeah, the phone will be a way different experience than the television. I only use my phone for commenting on videos.

great sounding blown out speakers

Definitely better. I didn’t do the ZJ proportioning valve yet. That should improve it even more. As of right now how it set’s. I would say it’s a little better then drums. I mostly did it because needed all rear brakes any way. And this wasn’t much more money then just replacing the drum brakes. It makes things much easier in the future for brake replacement.

Great video mannnn. Thanks!

@@ZekeMaster85 Thanks. No problem!

If I remember correctly I used nylon lock nuts.

Bleeding went fine 🤷🏼‍♂️

Sorry, a more accurate question would be how’s the pedal feel? Soft, spongy? It would appear to bleed just fine because the fluid would come from the hose and run right out the bottom bleeder of the caliper it’s supposed to push the air out the top. Working in the brake and chassis field for 20years I’ve seen it many times, it’s a common and easy mistake. Just flip the calipers side to side and you will get a measurable improvement in brake performance. Other than that, good job! I was never impressed with the ZJ brake swap. Good to know there’s another option. Also, all the videos I see on disc brake swap fall short of addressing the hydraulic equation. The stock master cylinder was designed for the small diameter wheel cylinder, not the large surface area of a caliber piston. Also disc/drum systems have different front/rear proportional valves than disc/disc systems. I wonder if the Liberty master cylinder and proportioning valve would work? That is! If it has one? It may be integrated into the antilock brake module? Which opens up another can of worms. I would have liked to see how you did the park brake. And I agree with the other comments about he intro music. Too much, too long. Almost clicked off. But now I’m a subscriber.

@@jasonlessard2373 it does have a little soft pedal at first. So that’s probably the issue🤔. And most guys run the ZJ proportioning valve. I plan on trying that out.

@@jasonlessard2373 And I haven’t hooked up the emergency brake cable yet. Trying to figure out my best option. Some people will use the stock XJ cable and just wrap it around the ebrake lever on the liberty setup. But I don’t like how that looks rigged up.

​@@northernmichiganxjsoverlan3326 let me know what you figure out for that that's only thing keeping me from doing this being I have a manual

No you don’t have to install them. And I put a ZJ spring in my XJ proportioning valve.

Won’t work with the Dana 35. Your best option with that year is doing a ford explore 8.8 rear axle swap with disc brakes.

Right on, I will start looking for one for a swap in the future, thank you

No problem

​@@cousin_JACKit absolutely is possible on a Dana 35, NickInTimeFilms has a video on it

@@WAEMIDIV thanks dude. Big fan of your channel, I’ll go through his library of videos. Thank you. I need to get my pops Jeep off jackstands It’s been on stands for a year

The wheel centering is the same as far as I know. Never seen a issue with this swap.

Most guys use the ZJ spring in the XJ proportioning valve.

Oh no worries my brother thank you so much I figured it out I am in ASE certified Master automotive technician and I don't think I could have done a better job on the detailed description and the quality of your work I'm thoroughly impressed keep up the good work man

@@1jimjiminy Thank you!

This mod will not work on the dana 35 as far as I know. I believe you have to use the jeep ZJ rear disc brake parts if I remember correctly.

It’s basically all Jeep Liberty rear disc break parts other than the ZJ break lines.

Oh and the studs are front Jeep XJ Dana 30 studs.

Jeep liberty. It’s all jeep liberty parts. Except the hoses those are off a Jeep ZJ.

Unfortunately lost that footage 🤦🏼‍♂️

But basically it’s the same steps as putting the liberty ebrake together. Other then adapting XJ cable.

This didn’t cost much more then replacing the drum brakes that needed replaced anyway 🤷🏼‍♂️.

I don’t believe so.

They make universal weld on disc brake kits I am sure you could make work.

Petoskey MI.

You can. But they are Mopar parts and are super expensive.

Not for sale

No

@@robertweinstein6441 your welcome

im curious about this too

Under $250. I got the liberty backing plates for $50 off Facebook market place. That was the hardest thing to find. Everything else is just factory liberty brakes parts. I bought new of eBay and rock auto.

@@northernmichiganxjsoverlan3326 nice not bad at all definitely would be worth it.

Probably not with out the ABS light being on and not working.

Thanks

It does not. Only the 8.25.

Unfortunately GoPro lost that footage

@@northernmichiganxjsoverlan3326 what cables did you use

@@abrahambarkhordar5572 factory XJ e brake cable

Unfortunately no.

If you look closely. It is not actually touching the y bolt plate.

New editing software. Didn’t realize that issue tell after I uploaded. I will keep it in mind for next video.

Lost that footage unfortunately

@@northernmichiganxjsoverlan3326 Ahhh that explains why... It's a one simple fit over the original?? Thanks for the video.

@@Justdigit2 if you look up how to install ebrake shoes on the liberty same steps. Only thing thats different is making the XJ ebrake cables work with the liberty ebrake setup.

Obviously you don’t live in Michigan. Was sick of dealing with the self adjusters seized up from rust almost yearly. And drum brakes hold mud if you actually off-road your jeep. If drums worked so great. Why did almost every manufacturer do away with them?

And FYI i passed my ASE certification in brakes. So I know how to properly maintain drum brakes.

@@northernmichiganxjsoverlan3326 Easy now partner. I live in the state of Maine. Plenty of ice, snow and mud here. I do off road it and have no problem cleaning out my drums. It was a comment, not a personal attack on you. I like Drum brakes you dont. I wont comment again. Sorry you are offended. Jeep on.

@@northernmichiganxjsoverlan3326 Roger that. So did I.

@@moeshiner156 sure came off a little negative.

Sorry, not as bad as I first thought. But the opening audio was too loud.

Thanks for the feedback. Still figuring out this KZfaq thing. And first video with this new video editing software.

you can fast forward... not sure why you find that so challenging and calm down
