Well i have finally gotten to the stage in my build where I need to get some brake lines made up for the B, need to go from 7/8th master to wilwood bias valve (which I have sorted out thanks to the kit Baz supplies) then to the original line going along the firewall and into the trans tunel to the rear brakes, I just need to make a line from the valve to the original line which has a male fitting.

For the fronts i was going to come off the MC then onto a distribution block mounted onto the wheel well in the bay, then have the line for the front right go under the rail to the mounting tab then for the left i was thinking of going along the crosmember held by some P clips and onto the mounting tab.

Been thinking on just getting some roll of wire and bending it to suit then take that to a brake place and get them to make some up with the proper fittings and flares, questions is where to go????

doesn't need to be anythign fancy just be able to make what I need and if possible located in the South East Melb area.

Cheers!

Alex

I was going to say better brakes too. They can make up lines and everything.

I'll ask them for a rough price if not I'll take you up on that offer Stu, I've always wanted to learn how to do them. Otherwise if I f*ck them up I'll get back to them to do the job...

:shock: sh*t hope they don't specially onto the new paint!!!!

Yeah I'd say within the next week or so, I'll get in touch with you once I've worked out how I'm going to do them and see what we can come up with. Also would I be able to buy all the material off them including fittings and distribution block???

Yeah they usually have everything there also modern brake fluid isnt as bad as the old stuff as long as you wash it off straight away the paint will be fine.

Alex the Xmember is drilled & tapped to take a 3 way block.
we can supply the full kit to fit the front brakes.
The 3 way union fits onto the xmember.
the lines run across the rear of the xmember & are scured by "p" clips 7 5mm cap screws.
check this link re the rear lines.
you can do a similar thing.
