Here's my story...
78 CJ7 with front disc, rear drum.
I noticed a couple of weeks ago Both front calipers are dragging. I looked at the master cylinder saw that brake fluid was leaking. I got another master cylinder, bench bled it, bled brakes. Fixed absolutely nothing. Calipers still drag, brake fluid is coming out from under the cover on master, which in hind sight, is where it was coming from on old master. The cover is tight. Upon further review, I ran into the Proportioning valve which I was unaware of until now. Is that my culprit?
Thank you, in advance.
