Ok guys, I really need some help here. I have a 99 TJ with dana 44's F&R. I run Gr. Cherokee disc in the rear with 1/2 chevy calipers up front with f-150 outers. The problem I've been having is with the front calipers not the rear. I'm putting new calipers on the front but I can't get the left front caliper to work. Also when I had the old calipers on the jeep it dove right when you hit the brakes, and that caliper never really worked either. The right front is fine. WTF goin on here. It can't be seized its brand new:eek: Well any help would be appreciative:flipoff2:

Sounds like poss the metering block is stuck. When you bleed the brakes, do you get the same flow out of both calipers? If the left is less, then poss a stuck block or a clogged line. Has anyone ever use telfon tape on the fittings? If one brake works, and the other side does not, then it has to be in the block, line, or caliper.
