Flexible brake lines

Re: Flexible brake lines

Just did the install. I initially installed the second tee fitting, but removed it. There was way to much extra line to deal with, and a much cleaner install with one tee. I think dingbat was on to something, it would make adding a second axle easier.

Just gotta grab some brake fluid and bleed it down.

OK, stripped both darn bleeders. I think I will just replace the brakes tomorrow, sigh...

Time for new wheel cylinders anyway probably. They are cheap.

Yep, I'm going to drive over to Eastern Marine tomorrow. These are old brakes, original to 1993 when the PO parked it.

How are the brakes themselves? How is the backing plate. At some point it makes sense just to replace the whole darn thing.

That's what I am going to do
