- Wed May 12, 2010 3:57 am #193312 im plannin on finishing my engine wire tuck as i have done like 60% of it and also completly tucked the headlight harness's.....

however i wanna know how hard is it to tuck all those damn hydrolic lines for the brakes and clutch.

i DONT wanna put them in the cabin cause imo thats just stupid you would get brake fluid everywhere when you had to work on the system.

i wanna move the prop valve down about a foot behind the motor and instead of having lines everywhere just have a line of 4 going striaght down the fire wall

does anybody if this idea is possible? i basically wanna tuck the lines withought making them completly disapeer lol.

- Wed May 12, 2010 4:18 am #193320 since you have to bend all the lines yourself when you do a brake line tuck, id imagine you could put the prop valve anywhere you wanted as long as you can get lines to work.

- Sat May 15, 2010 12:39 pm #194420 you'll need a tubing bender:

and a flare kit unless you but the pre-flared with the fittings already on the line.

Same for the clutch line but you can use a stainless steel braided line and -AN fittings for that if you want.

Some people on HT have don't the same for the brake lines but I would not recommend it.
