Re: "Elwood" the 77_remix

After the calipers are mounted the brake pads slide in place. Well in this case they were a bit too tight. I chose to remove a few mills off each end of the brake pad backing plates to ensure the pads float in the calipers.

The new calipers require a flexible line. Wilwood offers a braided stainless steel kit with the proper fittings. I will use the factory line clamps to hold these in place. I created new hard lines that will be cut and flared once correct length is determined.
