Starting to do the brake lines on my 914 and i'm a bit stumped.. I got a set of braided flex lines that are fitting up fine on the back but on the front ..... not so much....
I'm runnging 911T struts and the hole for the flex line to go through is too small. I tried the remains of my original rubber flex line and it too does not fit. The tab on the strut does not look to have enough material to enarge the hole to fit the flex line. Has anyone else come accross this ?? Do i need to use 911 flex lines?? On side note.. I have a pair of braided front 914 flex lines if someone needs them.. Thanks! |

You can't fix a posted problem without also posting details. Come on, we need to know how you did it. Oh, BTW

Meh... I used my dremel tool and opened up the holes .. :-)
911 flex lines don't have the same fittings as 914 so thats what needed to be done. |

It has a different "U" shaped attachment that goes on the hard line side.
