This is a huge step. Alert the media!
Project Rockabilly now has BLING!
There's a car show in Pomona on Sunday where more Bling can be acquired.....

Re: HOW TO: Split the brake lines (many have asked)

Good job on the pics and write up. I always think the shallow bends are the hardest....like the one behind the X-member. How do you usually make those?
Wrist power? My favorite, across the belly?

I also like the 1-John power pics.

'

you can buy a tube bender(not expensive), sandbag or you can find something which has the curve which you need and place the line on it and just slap the line with a flat piece of wood and form it around it. if you try bending it by hand you usually end up with a kink in it

QUOTE: The push rod was also modified for this MC.
Any more info on this. I feel the need for a dual MC for safety reasons.
Nice work and write up.
