rear brake conversion plumbing was created by oxford_bloke
I have fitted a muddyzook conversion to my jimny and now im a little confused as to how to plumb them up. Mainly the brake correction valve ideally id like to remove this and put a block in its place and use the existing brake lines to fit to the calipers. a point of note is that i have done a 2" body lift and a 4 1/2" suspension lift.

cheers guys

Good luck with that then bruv lol :whistle:
You will need to buy a m10x1 tee and mount it on the diff crown also 2 long cranked banjos and bolts and seals also 2 long straigt fittings and 2 metres of pipe all in -3 fitment assemble it all up and bleed the system rear rubber hose will stay in place as is unless you are lifting the car load sencing valve will also stay in place
Hope you dont mind but how much did you pay for the kit always good to check out the competiion lol

The valve is there for a reson just use a T peice of the flexi hose to each caliper

and if daves kit was around when i brought the my muddy zook kit i would have gone for daves as i had to mod my kit to fit due to poor engineering

You can buy a riser that goes on the axle to move the spring up i didnt bother with my 4.5" lift brakes still worked fine
