This is just a guess as I haven't put mine back on yet. But how hard would it be to put the lines and the MC together outside the car and then feed the lines back up to the hood? |

This WAS one of the hardest things I did on my first 914. Then I got smarter....... 1. Take out the mc and the mc feed lines 2. mark the feed lines front and back (you will thank me later) 3. Take the feed lines off the old mc and transfer to the new one on a bench. These are easy to press in on a bench. A real PITA to try to do under the car. 4. Take your new mc with the feed lines in the correct holes (front and back) and feed the feed lines thru the correct holes below the fuel tank. Take your time as they can twist out here. 5. Bolt it on. M |

I just compared the routing of the brake lines in Rob's pic and the routing that I did. They do not match. Does it matter??? If I'm following the routing correctly, Rob's pics show the line from the front of the master cylinder reservoir connected to the rear connection on the master cylinder. My pics show that I connected the line from the front of the master cylinder reservoir to the front connection on the master cylinder. Will either routing work??? Or, do one of us need to .... |

I did this no problem. The MC was bolted in too. How far down do you have to push the lines in? Hopefully I did it right. |
