Thread: Drilling holes for thru frame brake fittings

Tweet

I do mine a bit different.

Rears:


This is an aluminum bracket I bade up with a bulkhead fitting recessed into one side and held to the frame with SS socket head caps, again recessed into the aluminum block. The line is then connected to the Wilwoods via a Russell DOT 90* approved flex line.

The fronts:


Pretty conventionally done with the fitting about in line with the Wilwoods and again connected via a Russell DOT line (Deuce, I do like that front fitting instead of the Speedways I have, but.....)

If the master cylinder is hidden under the floorboards, IMHO, why spend big bucks for a fancy shiny version - save the extra $100+/- for something that can be seen unless you 'have the need'

Oh yeah, something to consider on the calipers - speed bleeders. One man brake line bleeding. You need two for each Wilwood though, so it does get somewhat pricy if you have 4 wheel disks
