recently bought 91 cherokee briarwood with hard brake pedal (no power)and red brake light stays on.did my homework and found recall notice at recalls.gov for booster and pump, question is do they make a better aftermarket system? also been told sys could be modifided to regular brakes by cutting the lines near master cylinder and flaring the different ends onto the new master cylinder and booster (not sure the pedal attaches the same?), has anyone actually pulled this off or not worth the trouble (not sure how often the abs system fails on these jeeps)

I am in the process of changing my 89 abs to 88 regular, I will keep everybody posted. Now is the time, my pump doesnt' work either and it was my parts guy who suggested it to me, says the change over is becoming pretty common.
