Finally got my 75 914 through Oregon DEQ and took my first real drive on some twisties. Just a quick loop out Skyline, down Mcnamee and back in on US30. It kicked ass.
Now I've got a pretty good pool of brake fluid dripping from near the passenger rear jack donut. Any guess on what blew up? I assume that it has something to do with some sort of rear T valve or something, but I have yet to get it on jackstands and take a look. If I can finish my bathroom remodel I'll get to take a look at it tomorrow morning. In the meantime, anyone want to take a guess at what I broke? Mike |

That's one of the many things I replace on these cars , the oem type rubber brake lines aren't very expensive at all and some of the best insurance money you can spend. Just check your metal lines for rub areas and secure so as to not have any contact with the various parts of the body mountings.
