[Alan Whitaker]

Hi All.
Doing the front brake lines this week,just wondering how everybody has run there lines, I am using S/S lines from the callipers right up to the master cylinder, pictures would be great.

I ran the flex through the little bracket near the top ball joint that normally supports one end of the metal pipe between the two flex's. A little bit of pvc tube around it to prevent chafing (couldn't find a grommet at the time) .

Thanks for that, I can make some brackets to fit the back of the knuckles.

surely changing solid to flex in these situations is a retrograde step? Having a coupling at the bracket is right and not subject to risk of wear?
