Plumbing Brakes

[Alan G]

Hi guys,

Looking for a bit of help how to plumb in my brakes - and also what connections I need where etc.

 

Running bias box, line lock, princess 4 pots up front, fiesta calipers on the rear...

 

I have braided I could do the whole lot and do it inside the car?

.... or would I better off using copper??

Oh, diagrams would help for all ye da vinci wannabe's

Copper is better with braided lines just at the ends .

Im with Gaz about running the car in solid, but not Copper, but a copper alloy, Kunifer is probably the easiest to get and use, I prefer half hard stainless, but its more expensive and harder to work,

The reasoning behind ot using the braded thruout the car is the brading will stop the plastic liner expanding in diameter, but will not stop it expanding lengthways, and this will give you a soft pedal,

think most brake pipe is now copper/nickel alloy
