Title: Installing Goodridge 2 line brake kit on 95 M900
Post by: lemond on November 04, 2008, 12:49:48 PM
I just got a Goodridge (DU2801 - 2FP) front brake line kit for my '95 M900 and I have no idea how to install this. My M900 have dual calipers on the front and the two brake lines hooks into a junction box (behind the headlight), the junction box is controlled by a cable into the master cylinder. I googled the Goodridge kit and it said  "2-line race kits. Dual front lines run directly from the master cylinder to the calipers thus eliminating the junction block." so how do I run the two lines from the master cylinder???

You use a double banjo bolt on the master cylinder and then route the lines to each caliper (any way that they will work). You are replacing the entirety of the stock setup.

^^^  What he said. The lines coming out of your master cylinder should look something like this:

...and then you simply run one line to each of your calipers.

Do your self a favor and buy a double banjo bolt that has a bleed screw in the end of it if you do not already have a bleed screw on your master cylinder.
Pay  close attention to the fittings to make sure there are no leaks of brake fluid when you are done.

good luck
