brake lines leak?

Here are videos to help you make your own line or replace the brake flex hose.

The process is the same in most cases.

Where are the brake lines located at?

A rubber flex hose is attached to each front brake caliper and each rear wheel assembly. The other end is clipped to a bracket on the body sheet metal, and a steel line attaches there to each rubber hose. Where those lines go depends on whether the car has anti-lock brakes or standard brakes.

My 97 cherokee sport has a brake fluid leak on the right front side. It looks like the fluid is comin from this soft rubber looking thing thats behind the pads. what is this and how can i fix it? thanks.

If the rubber thing is round, it is a dust cover. The caliper piston rides in it. If it is leaking, the caliper needs replaced.

Let me know if you have other questions.

I changed my rear brake shoes, and what i think is the brake wheel cylinder when i started bleeding the brakes it start pouring out, theres two seals on each side (rubber seals), and one of them is there but not around and wont go back on, that side brake shoe is also out about an inch on the top where its supposed to be, do you by any chance now how to make it flush with the top where the two shoes meet, and what to do to stop the master cylinder from leaking?

Take it all apart and start from scratch-replace the wheel cylinder-anchor the brake shoe on the anchor point on top then put cup spring, then set the brake adjuster star wheel to expand or contract the shoes

When you put back the drum and it will not go thru readjust the star wheel till the drum can set in. When done do a couple of reverse backing while stepping the brake this will set the clearance between the shoe and drum.
