Default Steel braided brake lines installed

i bought a pair of Russell brake lines from bobby at SnR and i just installed them today. they fit nicely, they look good too. i just did a test drive and i need to re-bleed the brakes. but hopefully my rear brake hangup problem has been solved. we will see i guess.

I think I told you it was the brake lines a long time ago.

You will notice a big difference in pedal feel. I love mine

i thought that was the problem, however, i disconnected the ebrake and left the caliper/brake line connected and it still hung up. it was rubbing early this morning but doesnt seem as bad when i went to lunch. guna bleed the brake tonight and see if that solves the rest of my problems
