    bunch of brake line questions

    the people at Memphis are great. I needed the short brake shoes for one wheel and was thinking I would have to buy the long ones as well, but they sold me just what I needed. They're in my M715 favorites file from then on!

    Cap Screws for Brake drum!

    bunch of brake line questions

    I could probably use your magic as the bends running to the wheel cylinder are rather snug. I bought a tubing bender and flaring tool and am only waiting for the line to arrive. it is CNF line which I have learned bends very easily. still, I plan to go slowly and meticulously the whole time...

    yes. I learned that too. and never, never, never, use compression fittings.

    bunch of brake line questions

    here is the bend near the right rear brake. really tight access thus the short fitting also probably why the fitting got so boogered up
