Could I get you opinion on this please...?
I am tempted to run the flex hose from the back plate straight to the floor pan. then solid pipe to the Center T and to the front of the car. 
I plan to bring the hose inside right in the back corner of the seat squab. I may weld in a small plate on the inside to toughen it up a little. I haven't seen this done before, is there a reason for this like is a dum idea..?



Cheers James

The first thing I can think of is that if you do any future work requiring the arm to drop (ie suspension changes) you would need to disconnect the brake circuit, refill, re-bleed etc....

Don't like it, hangs very low and susceptible to damage.

I dont like it either, I made up braided pipes to go along the trailing arm and onto bulkhead fixings in the rear heel board

I seriously doubt it!

I wanted to go straight to the heal board but it's not log enough. the suspension is as low as it will go, but after a sleep on it the loop is just asking to get court on something, oh well back to the drawing board...

thanks for the help.
