[QUOTE="jaysyro, post: 430941, member: 19521"] I recently swapped out my rear Dana 35 for a Ford 8.8 axle. Everything went well, but my only issue is that the rear calipers are simply not getting enough brake fluid. I’ve read across the Internet that the stock master cylinder should be sufficient, but I know for a fact that ideally when pressing on my brakes, they should be tighter. What is my next step? Is there a tweak? Can I take my jeep to a brakes auto shop and they take care of this in a few hours, or do I have to worry about getting myself into a larger project finding a master cylinder etc?
