Did some work on the brake lines today. Using the Stainless Steel 3/16" tubing I cut, bent and double flared the 4 pieces for the front wheels and installed them on the Patrol!! 8-) Only 1 million more things to go before she is all done! :dance:

Thanks!

No I got all the stuff from http://www.inlinetube.com

I'm hoping to track down that female fuel fitting I need for the fuel tank tomorrow.

Yeah, but... Don't take it to the track when you're done; because you'll get smoked by everyone, except the old guy on a bicycle...

and even the bicycle dude is carrying even odds for a tie... :twisted:

Despite the awesome stainless steel brake lines, the bike can stop shorter too! (they really do look great!)
