Brake Line Routing

[The Ssssnake]

Hi Guys

Just a quick one, can anybody tell me the best route for running the front brake lines. I,ve had a look at the old threads but nothing seems that clear

If you could explain which tubes to run down as per Chris' book that would be cool

Cheers

I,ve ran mine like this....

off side front = up & along D2
near side front= along B9 & across B7 & up a bit of U1

rears = from master cylinder along the bottom rail of the trans tunnel, then once past the diff, up & along RS12 to where the T piece is located on RS6.

Then to either side from the T piece along RS6, down RS10 on both sides to where I have brackets that then go to my flexi hoses at each end of RS14.

hope this helps.

cheers

Hi, Dave cars looking good,
just to point out a small point about your rear brake pipes.
you say your going to use a small length of copper between the upright and caliper.
thats fine if your using drums and mean cylinder,but if you have discs the calipers are floating so the pipewok to them needs to flex so you cant use copper.
and a little thought about the front you seem to have the left from the cylinder going to the right and the right to the left unless im wrong and thats not the case

ps I like where youve moved the rear brackets to the top and wish id seen that before i fitted mine gonna move them now as i didnt like them on the back either
