The braided line you see going to the right is going to the front caliper, the ordinary brake line going the other way goesto the rears....difficult int it

ok, but how do you get it so the rear calipers take priority over fronts?

No idea.......

I guess you could build in less braking capacity on the front end or you have a single line out of your master cylinder and fit a brake balance bar, you can then adjust till your happy ...

With mine I have a single disc with a single pot Brembo caliper on the new front end.I have noticed that it's not as easy to lock up the rears as it used to be...although it stops just as well... ergo some of the braking effect has been transferred to the front..

Before the conversion I had a single pot caliper off a "I found you in the bottom of the bitsabox"....which just about got it through it's MOT

If you want to be scientific it's a brake balance valve thingiewotsit

This one seems quite clever.....it has only one outlet....Assume this fits in your front brake line and reduces the amount of pressure????????

Can't get my head around that one

This aint face book.....thats why we have threads with subjects......I am aware the thread you would have posted in has been closed on a voluntary basis...in this caser it's simple...Start another one with the subject in the title......All that happens with slinging in a post on a totaly different subject is that it either gets ignored or confuses everyone
