The brakes are complete. After installing the rebuilt master cylinder I filled it up and bled all the lines. One more bleeding and I can put the wheels back on and roll and stop it.
With all of the brake lines now complete, I need to rebuild the master cylinder and paint it. I am alos flushing out the ABS unit. I am using a vacuum pump to draw brake fluid through the pump. I can then put it all together and fill it up.
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.
