no. the soft brakeline has to go down and then go back up in order for the banjo bolt to fit correctly on the passenger side.

the driverside just goes down.


its hard to explain. but the banjo bolt is off centered in the end of the soft line (square metal piece) so it can only go on one way to the caliper.

As long as it's not in danger of being kinked or rubbin your tire during turning/suspension travel, then you have nothing to worry about.

k. hopefully everything works out. i'm still having trouble with the sn95 proportioning valve. the front bolt/plug that you need to close off the hole and take the plunger out still leaked (a buddy broke a screw off in there and said "it'll be fine") and the bottom line closets to the radiator needs to be re flared. somehow its inverted and the prop valve needs a single flare. found out the hardway when i hooked everything up and it leaked.

He broke a bolt off where the plug is intended to go where the plunger was removed? That's not good. If it's leaking try to get it out and replace it with an acutal plug. I didn't have to use any thread sealer but you may have to, who knows.

Are you sure it requires a single flare? All of my lines are double flared.

yeah i'm in the process of finding another plug.

and the old prop (92) has a nipple inside the prop.. the sn95 is concave and no nipple thats why i assume it needs a single (bubble) flare

The cobra kit uses all stock hardlines except for the rear end hardlines on the axle housing. The only stock hardline to get modified is the front driver's side caliper that gets cut and bent to go into the back of the prop. valve instead of the bottom of the master cylinder. The line that is cut gets a double flare.

but the proportioning valve that game in your kit is not the same as sn95 mine. i saw pics of yours.

does it not make sense about the concave inside the pro valve? and why i have to re flare it. cuz all i remember is when i hooked it up it just started dripping out that connection

crusin92red5.0

so i couldn't find a cap for the front of the pro valve. damn metric bul****z. so cold weld better work (permatex stuff)

so here is a visual of the problem i still face. which is i'm leaking from the bottom front line from the proportioning. i'm thinking its becuase the pro valve is for a single flare and the brakeline is a double flare. someone correct me if i'm wrong.


here is the pic of the sn95. you have to trust me that there is no nipple inside the proportioning valve bc the pic is not the best


here is the stock brake line. i assume it runs to back becuase every time i open the passenger rear bleeder valve the thing starts pouring



this is the picture of the stock 92 proportioning valve.
you can clearly see that it has a nipple in there.



so there is really not enough to flare here since it bends 2 inches down, i'm wandering if i can get a adapter that would allow me just to screw it over the original threading? any suggestions would help

OMG! you will never believe how long it took me to bleed my brakes......... lets just say i put in the lower control arms faster than bleeding them.. i had to connect/re connect the lines mutiple times, shoot compressed air down the lines and still had to use a vacuum pump to get them to start flowing. i definitely could not do the old gravity bleed. i got most of the air out, but the pedal doesn't feel 100 percent just yet, so i'll have to bleed them again.


oh and i found a fitting the went over the old line and turned it back to a single flare and no leaks from the pv............ yet! (cross fingers)
