Who has installed Ruslow's SS front brake line kit?
Has anybody installed these before? I'm trying to put mine on, however I don't understand how they'll work without binding. I have the aluminum plate that attaches to the solid lines in place where the plates on the rubber lines went (top), no problem. What's killing me is figuring out the mount orentation on the ends that have a 90 degree elbow on it that attach to the caliper, and if I attach the retaining clip to the A arm at the point where the other retaining clip went, the lines will bind or kink when the wheels get near the stops, no matter how I angle the elbow. These lines aren't like Madstferrii's lines, so his guide isn't valid for this installation.

If you are interested in the SS brake line kit that was going to be offeresed in the ruslow rotors and pads GB here's a pm that was sent to me from the nhtoc and the new vendor who is going to be selling the brake line kit.
{ Nick, bad news- I am sorry to inform you that I learned today that my Business Liability Insurance carrier will not allow me to market brake lines. I apologize for the disappointment and any inconvenience this decision may cause. Should you wish to pursue an alternate source for this kit, I would suggest you call Tom at Bonaco, Inc. in Upland CA, 909/985-3429. These people are ready and willing to pursue this product and they have all of the dimensions and specifications for making the DOT approved set. Mike } good luck |

I had to put everything back together and request 30* fittings. They worked perfectly. |
