Hydraulic Brake Line Routing

[austexaviator]

I too went through the floor but used phenolic blocks to keep the lines from chaffing instead of grommets.

I can send you pictures of my install via email, but my lack of technical prowess won't allow me to post here. Still trying to get the time to stop flashing on the VCR.

Once I learned how to bleed the brakes it was easy enough to do (but still messy). I've only had to bleed them once since the install. Sad that his business in now closed as I may have to go to a different brake set up if/when I need parts for these. As to my install my lines are through grommets and then onto the gear legs. I don't have a clear photo but if you stop and look at the interior tour portion of this video you can see the routing:

I wasn't able to clearly make out how you routed those lines from the video, but nice bird! Also, I will probably sell my TOB setup after I get the Matco brakes installed in case you want spares.

I'll have to get another picture.

When you get a chance I would appreciate it.

Yes it is very hard to see clearly. I looked for a photo but I don't have any of that particular area that show the fine detail. I can take one next time I'm at the port but with this weather (and the holiday) it might be a few days. The other thing is that I'd have to sent them to an email address as I can't manage to post photos on this site.

You can most certainly keep me in mind if you have the TOBs for sale. Mine are good and I've got another set of pads but parts might be a good thing to have on the shelf ...

Thank you all who sent pictures. This is giving me a much better ideal how to route them.
I am really enjoying the Sonex community - y'all are a fantastic bunch!
