Default got more work done today




today i finished putting in the dual master cylinder and porportioning valve. i dont like the way all the brake lines turned out but it was my first time bending all that stuff. need to go buy brake fluid now and bleed everything through. i also started undercoating the bottom of the car while i had the front jecked up. gonna jack up the rear and finish it off tomarrow. maybe add a second coat. makes the underneath of the car look real good once the pipes and drive shaft are put in

Looks like a clean job EZ. I will be doing that same thing soon, so I may be picking your brain later. I don't have the undercoating on the under carriage of mine because I have always been told that after a few years, the undercoating separates from the metal and moisture gets trapped between the undercoating and the metal. I just use a red oxideprimer and paint.

here does this still look good for the brake lines?

soaring;
i think you might be right because there isnt a whole lot of undercoating left from the original. i just got frustrated with but all these shiny new parts underneath and seeing all that ugliness. next week im pulling the new rear end back out and finish the undercoating

wow this looks like a stupid question but it looks like you have two proportioning valves. is this right? there is one on the inner drivers side fender(it looks like) and the other one is the black adjustable one. never heard of using two. but i don't no everything fill me in

the one on the inner fender is just a split to go to the left wheel and right wheel. the proportion valve controls the amount of pressure going to the rears and then is split back on the rear end
