This is what I used, from a 1996   JeepCherokee  but you must bend your own lines to make the proportioning valve work

I have a Cherokee m/c . I thought the tilted fservoir would be a lower volume of fluid. If not an issue  I’m good to go. Thank you

I also used a 98 Cherokee MC, I fabricated a mount so it is behind the OEM MC, and extended the push rod, it works great. I mounted the proportion ing valve next to the new MC which was a delicate install to get those short lines in stalled.  That valve does not how in these pictures, it's below the steering post. I did that on my back, from under the truck.

I don't see an OEM master cylinder in those pictures, Paul. I think you are mixing up your projects.

You are correct, the MC shown is the Cherokee  MC. 

Edit: rough sketch of how I mounted the Cherokee master .cylinder

I did not use the OEM MC on the truck .

This guy is stealing my patent...LOL...I'm gonna claim to be #1 with the Cherokee MC...I've gotta have some kinda rep here..LOL

I think it's the best fit myself, I looked at a lot at the wrecking yard before I decided on it...removed it and it measured up pretty well.

4Mula, I tried to recall where I found this application, so now I may know. TKS! Am I now no longer a thief?  I need to get a photo from the bottom, here are a couple  from the top,  partially showing the proportioning valve. It fits nice beside the MC but is difficult to install. Seems the space will not allow the two, the MC and the valve, to install together.

LOL....I have taken so much stufffrom other guys on here, I would be in the same category...so I don't fault anyone for ideas here Pflam

 

This was my original post on it I think, but I messed up the year I took the part off...I had one from a 90 and it was too big to fit, but I think I fixed that later in the discussion.  Hopefully the pics help out and what I had to do
