Yep Im using the braided 'soft' lines that are black nylon braid with rubber internal. The fitting I found on there is a crappy Summit chinese thing... see photo below. I guess it wont hold, it just doesnt crimp the line on there tight enough I guess. Im gonna go down to Parker and have them crimp me a custom line in their hydraulic press hose maker.... done with this!


The brake pedal thingy is going to be a whole 'nother project. It was just to move it on the left side of the steering column where the clutch used to be. I should have left the clutch assembly in the frame!

Im thinking I may go with flanged bearings, like this:
and drill a hole in the frame rail and run a shaft right thru from pedal to lever, key it, bolt it. IDeas? Comments?
