Default A little taste of my winter time fun...

Here's a little teaser pic of what my car got this winter....

As soon as I'm done I'll do a write up with plenty of pics on the whole procedure, no expenses were spared.

An overview of the rear (that's not rust on the axle hubs, they are painted orange)

The stainless steel braided lines are made by StopTech and sold through Maximum Motorsports. I've got all 5 lines in braided stainless. The front two are custom tailored for sn95 brake conversions on a fox chassis. The rear lines are pretty much sn95 lines. Just ask a tech at Maximum Motorsports and they will get you the exact fitting lines. It was about $230 for all 5 flex lines. The stock bracket for the axle to frame line, the middle one, has to have a hole drilled in it and the brass block is bolted to it, as you can see in the picture.

Hmm, the flex line should have a circular fitting with a hole in the middle(banjo bolt) and a fluid screw goes through the hole and screws into the line on the car.
