Brief Description: Install Flexible Brake Lines in Cabin
I spent today working on the flexible brake lines in the cabin. The most difficult part was pressing the small brass inserts into the ends of each of the Parker Parflex tubing. I used a hair dryer to warm up the ends of the tubing. This helped but it still took a lot of pressure to insert those little buggers. I was able to install the lines from the T at the firewall coming from the reservoir to the right side master cylinders. Then from the right master's along the rudder pedal support tubes to the left master cylinders. I also installed the Aeroquip high pressure lines to the left master cylinders. The other ends are not attached to anything yet but they will eventually connect to the parking brake valve. I need to fabricate a firewall bracket for the valve first before connecting these up.
