braided hoses from master cylinder to calipers!
right i am wanting to do this at some point very soon!
i know mark (excursion) did this, but i was wandering how you did it, the bias valves are fixed so you cant turn them, and also the master cylinder is fixed so you cant turn that! so how do you fit them so they dont kink!
also how far did you go with one tube? did you do all the length in one or split it into sections? also what sort of conectors did you use?

could you not do one end up tight, and count how many turns u did, undo it again, do up other end, and then twist the hose the opposite way to it kinked the amount of times u turned it to do it up, then do it up, ending up with it straight?!
thats my idea, lol! Mite be stupid, but i tried!
