darkstarxi Posted January 10 Author Share Posted January 10 Went over brakes at all four corners to make sure that everything is moving freely and smoothly - all good. I don't remember doing it but I guess I must have completely removed the rear brake dust shields at some point in the past - probably while replacing axles and/or hub/bearings. Time to do the fronts, but I don't want to deal with unbolting hub/bearing assemblies or axles, so a trim will do. I hate dust shields. Driver's side after trim + carnage removed: Passenger's side before and after trim + carnage removed: On to installing Techna-Fit Front & Rear Stainless Steel Brake Lines... Had to replace the hose on my Power Bleeder because the hoses it came with kept bursting under pressure. Been a long time since I've used this thing - good thing I had extra silicone hose from when I replaced my engine bay hoses...fixed! Rear Passenger's Side: Rear Driver's Side: Front Passenger's Side: Front Driver's Side: Bled the brakes and the pedal feels great. I re-used the factory banjo bolts and clips that secure the brake lines but used the new copper washers provided by Techna-Fit. Was not a fan of the banjo bolts or clips that they provided. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not much room back there. Had to move the passenger’s seat up quite a bit to get the car seat in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoobyDoobyDoo Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 lol I get that. I’m 6’0”, ~220. When we all get in my wagon or if I have company it gets cozy pretty quick… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
