Now that the front brake lines have been constructed, I can focus on the rears. After building and painting the brackets to hold the flex lines, I have constructed the drivers side rear brake hard line. One more to go and the brakes are complete.

Finish driver side brake line #401

Using my copper wire again, I am constructing the driver’s front brake line. Once the line if fit and bent, I will flair the ends (making sure to put the fittings on first). The line has been constructed and is ready for install.

Finish passenger side brake line from ABS unit #400

I have finished my hard brake line from the ABS pump to the front passenger side flex line. I used a #10 bare copper wire to get the shape of the hard line and then transfered the bends to the hard brake line tubing.
