Dave's Customs Brake Booster and Master Cylinder Install - Jeep Wrangler YJ

[@johnlaws9853]

Good stuff, thank you!

[@fxrsniper1]

I reused the factory boot on my brake upgrade to cover the firewall hole

[@markthomas4083]

I am struggling badly. Trying to remove the push bar from the pedal. Removed the retainer clip, but it seems like I have a small secondary clip? Cannot remove the pushrod. Five speed. Please help with advice, anybody please.

[@RustyShacklefordPocketSand]

Did you end up figuring out what you are supposed to do about the hole in the firewall behind the booster?

[@HardEarnedBacon]

I never got a reply from Dave's Customs, I should probably try again.

@@fxrsniper1 how did you adjust the nut on the pushrod with the factory boot?

[@fxrsniper1]

@@HardEarnedBacon Note I also put new foam behind the plate like the factory to help as well. Like a Gasket

Did this mod give you better stoping power, and if so was it significant. I moved to 35” tires and that was a noticeable difference in stoping power and of corse not in a good way.

[@HardEarnedBacon]

I did this mod at the same time as I changed to WJ brakes so there was a big improvement but I'm not sure if it was more because of the bigger booster/master or the bigger rotors/calipers.

Hi! i was about to order the same booster from dave's. Would you recommend it? how is it going? thanks for the video!

[@HardEarnedBacon]

Still working well for me, I would buy it again

[@jk_wrangler13]

Have thought about putting a plug into the hole so dirt want get into you master cylinder?

[@HardEarnedBacon]

Which hole do you mean?

[@jk_wrangler13]

@@HardEarnedBacon where your pressure gage goes for your braker buster.

[@HardEarnedBacon]

@@jk_wrangler13 that hole doesn't go to the master or booster so no I'm not worried. That prop valve will probably get deleted anyway when I swap the 8.8 and have rear discs.

[@jamesfurnish5790]

Where did you get the brake fittings from and what size are they, I bought this same setup.

[@HardEarnedBacon]

Napa, I just went into my local store with the part numbers on the instructions and they ordered them for me.

[@jeremysyrop4552]

Nice. Was this the 8 or 9 inch booster?

[@HardEarnedBacon]

8"
