I am putting a XJ rearend in my CCR standard body T-Bucket. Does any one have any drawings or pictures for the rear brake line setup?

Anything would save me time\money\headaches.

Thanks

OK, next question: I am told the orginal JAG rear brakes are less than good. I have been told to 1) convert to power boost 2) install a Mustang dual master cylinder with a 3/4" bore and remove the residual valve to the rear 3) convert from JAG calipers to something else like Wilwood.

#1 is really not an option without MAJOR frame mods.
#2 I am still looking into.
#3 This requires modification to the third member housing, output shaft hubs and purchasing additional brackets and calipers and rotors and and and!

Did you guys that have done this face any of these issues?

What happened to "plug and play"?
 
I have not had any issues with the brakes. Of course I only have about 400km on the car.

Now the rear e-brake setup is a bit iffy, but the discs themselves have been great, I cannot see how they would be considered bad, dual piston calipers on an inboard disc?

I run a residual valve on the front nothing on the rear, the fronts get most of the brake force anyway, but if I stomp on the brakes, they all lock up.

No booster for me
