Part #:
Wether you are installing new brake lines as part of your new lift, installing new brake lines because you ripped one off on the trail, doing some work that just requires you to disconnect the brake lines, or you want to flush out the old fluids in your brake lines your going to need to bleed the brakes. If you don't bleed your b rakes you will have air trapped in your brake system. This can lead to poor or worst case no brakes. You may feel like the brake pedal is soft, or worse have it hit the floor when your trying to brake. Now if you haven't worked on your brakes and this happens you need to stop and immediately check for problems. As always make sure you set your emergency brake, put the Jeep in gear or park and block your tires. You are going to be laying under a heavy vehicle. If your not confident doing this job, have the dealership or local mechanic do it.

Common Sense and Safety should always be observed when working on your vehicle or doing modifications. Jackstands, wheel blocks, disconnecting the battery are a few of the basic safety precautions that should be used and may not be mentioned in the write ups on this site. You are responsible for your own installation, these write ups are a helpful guideline and should not be taken as an official installation instruction. My write up may be different from the kits currently out there, so alwasy double check the manufacturers installation instructions when installing anything. I try to keep the site up to date with changes that have occured as I discover them, but may not have the latest unless someone lets me know. If you feel that an install is above your capabilities after reading my write ups, I recommend getting together with a club and getting some help. Only a few times have I needed to employe some actual help from a shop to get something done. Usually welding or A/C work. While I have spent many years working on mechanical systems, I am not an expert, nor do I pretend to be one. I hope these write ups have been useful to you.
