thats how i was planning on running my brake lines, i have to redo them all anyways to get rid of the ABS.
 
Getting a little work done today .

Made a ball joint sleeve socket so I could get the upper ball joint torqued . It worked ok but will be buying one .

Getting close.
 
Lookin good.

I like the stage 8's too. I don't have them, but may consider getting them in the future. I've had the locking portion of the lockwasher jump out of the keyway and booger up my spindle before with the original locking system.

For the brakes, I ran a soft line to the top of my diff, then hard lines along the axles to the '79 D44 soft lines at the calipers. Everything was bought at the parts store, and was relatively cheap.

I have had nothing but problems with them.

Do you have a pic of where the center brake line comes off the frame or crossmember?
 
I'll rock the moped there, show you guys up with 49cc's of powa
