Ok i went wheeling a little tonight with a buddy of mine. My brake light on the cj dash has been coming on randomly lately. I havent thought much about it till now. I went up a nice little hill and turned around to come back down it. My buddy called me on my cell to get me to adjust some for better pictuers. While he called i put my foot on the brakes and stopped with the pedal about halfway depressed. After 5-7 seconds of talken to him my foot starts to go deeper down with the pedel. The next thing i know the pedals to the floorboard and im rolling down hill in his direction. This was a very odd happening. So im flying down this hill now with no brakes. I left off and pumped my brakes again and i had braking power again. What could have caused this. A bad Master cylinder, or the individual pistons on the wheels. I have the master cylinder and that all under the hood. No brake booster. When its light out ill take a better look. But im hopen some night owls can guide me a little bit. Thanks guys. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Edit* The brakes would not fully engage on hills the rest of the evening but it didnt have any trouble coming home. But we still had fun!
