Just want to post it and let you experts tell me if I am on the right track and if you have anyother helpful hints.
1951 3100, replacing the brake lines. From what I can garner, the shop manual says to use 3/16 inch brake lines throughout. The message board confirms that but also says that you use 1/4 inch from the MC to the first junction box. This seems correct.
Does that sound right? Anyother things I should be aware of before I waste 2 hours on a mistake that I didnt think of before I started?
Thanks in advance for any input regarding brakes. | | |
