I have disconnected all of the fittings at the MC, removed the switch, removed the 2 13 mm nuts, and disconnected the lines at the brake fluid reservoir. My problem is the rubber fittings and steel (?) lines at the top. That looks to be what wont allow the MC to pull out.
How do these come out? I was going to try to pry them out with a screwdriver but thought they would get destroyed. Thought about grabbing the steel line with channel locks and try to wiggle them out. I have a new MC coming from PMB but don't know if comes with new rubber fittings? Are they usually supplied with new MC's? I would vey much appreciate the advice and guidance. Thanks EJP914 |

Thanks EJP914 Just a remark about the general work involved. After much struggling in too tight of a space, I found it much easier after I went ahead and loosened up the torsion bar? holders and swung it down out of the way. Steve |
