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.
I now have the front brake lines complete. I have all the bolts in and the new brackets have been painted. It is now time to focus on the rear brake lines. Once the flex lines are complete, the hard lines will then be constructed.
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.
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.
Brake work continues. I now have the ABS unit plumbed to the master cylinder. Once I have the flex lines attached, I must run the hard lines from the ABS unit to the flex lines. This will take some time to get everything right.
With the anti-lock brake pump, the brake plumbing is a bit more difficult. There are quite a few lines to create and this will take a long tome to complete.
I now have the clutch master cylinder rebuilt as well as the slave cylinder. I have installed and filled up the system with hydraulic fluid and it is all working good. Now I just have to finish up the brakes.
I can now start reinstalling all of the foot-box gear. I have started with the clutch master cylinder. I am rebuilding both the brake and clutch master cylinders. Everything is coming together now.
With the body and frame merger complete, I can now start the reinstallation of the footbox items. After cleaning and painting the footbox components I have bolted everything back into place. I sealed the box up with silicone and am now ready to reinstall the steering wheel and pedals.
Body and frame are as one. I am reviewing all of the body to frame fasteners. Now I can really start building for good.
