Pressure Brake Switch Or Mechanical

I am try to decide on which way to go with the brake switch. Any input on this topic would be great! Thank you

 

Mechanical.
Electricity and brake fluid don't mix well.

 

Big discussion about these about a month ago, if you search the archive.

IIRC, the newer pressure switches are cr*p, but someone posted a link to a quality part.

 

Year, model, equipment? You should put that in your signature file.

Looked at your profile. It's a '75 CJ-5, I presume. A CJ has a model 30 front axle, not a 35. I don't think the 35 has appeared as a front axle in a Jeep, ever.

The mechanical switch on the brake pedal that comes from the factory on a '75 works fine. Why change it? Jeep PN 3215939, Standard SLS84 More Information for STANDARD MOTOR PRODUCTS SLS84 also available from Wells. Both good brands. I'd avoid the Crown part.

 

I just had the "quality" switch fail on me after just a short time. I've resigned myself to considering these as a routine maintinence item...I keep 2 in my toolbox now

 

I will do the mechanical switch thanks to everyone with their input!

 

Buy a Wildwood hydraulic switch if you need a pressure switch. Cost a little more then the common junk. SUMMIT RACING carrys them.
