[NC] Install Note: Techna-Fit Stainless Steel Brake Lines
Posted: Fri Jul 20, 2012 9:31 am
Just an install note regarding these lines:
The fittings that attach to the front caliper in this kit are 4mm or so thicker than the stock brake lines. The hardware that came with this kit included new banjo bolts, but they were the same 22mm length as stock, resulting in substantially less thread holding the brake line on.
I would recommend special ordering two M10 x 1.0 x 26mm banjo bolts to accommodate the thicker fittings. This only applies to the FRONT lines; the rears were just fine.
