SupaDoopa Post Whore! Join Date: Jan 2010 Location: 隠された意図 Age: 33 Posts: 3,502 Trader Rating: (26) Feedback Score: 26 reviews	Anyone completely gut their own brake lines and make all new/custom setups? I got a roll of that nickle copper stuff and planning to re-do the whole chassis with new lines and p-clamps. Is this going to be a massive shit storm or easier than I'm anticipating? The only concern I have is that little soft-tube portion that's bolted to the inside of the wheel well. I'm wondering if just eliminating that, putting in a new block that can be bolted down, and then just screwing in the stainless line to that is sufficient.
