" Not quite an AMC but a decendent, my 2001 XJ has a brake problem that I
" can't figure out.  It was driving fine and then the pedal went to the
" floor with limited braking.  Checked for leaks - none.  Pulled the rear
" wheels to see if a brake adjuster had fallen out- nope.  Figured it had
" to be the MC not building pressure.  Got a rebuilt and bench bled it. 
" Put it on and same issue.  Plug the brake line fittings at the MC and it
" is rock solid.  The next step is a full bleeding of the system but I
" don't see how air could have gotten without a leak or hole somewhere.
" 
" Anyway, looking for ideas this feeble mind might have missed.  We have
" owned it since new and 2 years ago replaced calipers, wheel cylinders and
" all the brake lines from the prop. valve on back including the rubber
" hoses.
" 
" Stumped!

can't help except to wonder if your xj has abs - but can point you to
jeepcherokees@yahoogroups and xjlist@yahoogroups, both of which have
some very good xj mechanics and a bunch o' helpful folks.
