Just curious here...I'm upgrading to SS brake lines and also going to be losing the splitter and converting to a 2 line front system. What's the best way to measure for the new line that will crossover? Are there standard lengths for this type of conversion? Maybe I'll just get use my fabric tape measure.

I think I just used some spare vinyl tubing or something I had laying around. You need something that'll retain its shape as you hold each end to the calipers.
If I ever redo mine again, I'm going to have both lines connected to the master cylinder instead of having the loop go over the wheel. I think it would look a little better and it's probably easier to bleed. (No risk of air getting stuck at the top of the loop.)Last edited by eil; 03-12-2015, 02:50 PM. -
If you have an old piece of cable TV wire it more or less holds the shape of a brake line..........Old age and treachery will beat youth and skill every time1983 GS 750
