[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 426381, member: 18789"] TJ brakes ARE YJ brakes at the wheels. Starting with the 90 YJ they started the same design that carried onto the TJ. The differences on YJs are that a single diaphragm brake booster and cast iron MC were used 90-94 on 4.0s and 90-95 on 2.5s. The 95 4.0 received a dual diaphragm booster similar to a TJ but it was a different part. Brakes at the wheels are all the same though from 90 and later. So Vanco is definitely an option, but that limits you to crappy stock YJ steering which gets worse and worse the higher you lift the suspension. Not an issue for a 2.5” lift with a drop pitman arm, but go much higher than that and it starts to handle really poorly real quick. Unfortunately we didn’t get the much better TJ steering. [/QUOTE]
