brake question

[Smalls87]

I am in the process of puttin the M2300k brake on. MY car is originally a 4 cylinder and the brake lines travel along the passenger side while the v8 ones travel through the drivers side. Does anyone have these brake lines? Also has anyone put this kit on a car that was originally a 4 cyl and know what else Im goin to need?

refresh my memory is the MK2300k the disc conversion 5 bolt Cobra kit?

Yes it is...... 4 wheel disc brakes and five lug.

the only lines that are different on the 4cyl and v8 is the line that runs to the back of the car/ and the one that runs on top of the rear axle... it starts on the driver side rear but still comes in the engine bay on the passenger side.. and the brake lines on the rear axle... they are all the same sizes and all go to the same spot besides where the rear brake hoses meets the hard line running to the engine bay...

Now what is the problem your having????

 

[Foxman]

Yes it is...... 4 wheel disc brakes and five lug.

if it is rear disc you will not need the v8 rear axle lines for the fact that each rear caliper starts on a rubber hose.. so the rear axle lines will have to be different weather they are v8 or 4 cyl...

Ya thanks man..... My rear axle is already plumbed. I guess I just need the one that goes from the front to the rear of the car. Thanks for you help Foxman.... you wouldnt happen to have this line would you?

 

[Foxman]

no i used the v8 line i had... other then exhaust issues you shouldn't need the hard line that goes from the front to rear...

 

[Smalls87]

Ya i do cus that kit comes with own plumbing for axle and it ends on drivers side.

 

[Foxman]

buy a longer brake hose

I got a brake line out the junkyard.

 

[Foxman]

if you dont mind me asking what did you pay for the brake kit??

 

[Smalls87]

Its the M2300k kit from FRPP. I payed around a wallet emptying 2200 dollars for it.
