I'm trying to wrap up my front-end refresh and install my brake calipers.
1. Did I install the brake pad properly? Am I missing parts to hold the pins in place, or am I good? 2. Any tips on bending the gas line to the caliper? I'm worried I'm going to put a kink in it. Thanks, Victor   |

914 RZ-1 is Right.
The later front caliper, 73 on did not have the banjo bolt. Seeing how the correct hard lines should be $20 a pair, and the Banjo bolt complete set on Pelican and PMS are about $70, I think I'd just opt for the correct later set at $20 and not spend $90 for 8 inches of brake line... I have 3 cars here that have this on the front... Attached image(s)
