Banjo

[Michael Fling]

Can anyone confirm the use of banjo fittings for the brake lines to the calipers? Front, back, both or none. Thanks

Hi Michael

Totally depends on the model and make of the brake calipers.

Some use banjo and some have the hose screw straight into the caliper.

More info or photo's of yours would be required.

I used banjo fittings on both the front and rear stock RCR supplied calipers.

Banjo's are needed for the Brembo's. 10mm, but I don't remember the pitch either 1.0 or 1.5.

RCR supplied them, but the rear would have easier adjustment with just a 90 degree fitting. Thanks.

Here's how mine are installed with the RCR-supplied fittings.

I've heard conflicting information on whether or not the Banjo AN fittings for the flex lines to the calipers are included with the kit?

Will these work?

Fittings came with my kit.

The 45 degree fittings should go in the rear and the straight ones in the front. The fittings are part of the kit.

Those would work in the front, there should be 45 degree ones from summitt for the rear also.

No banjo fittings, bolts or crush washers came with my kit. All I received was the hoses.

They are now included with the brake line package.
FYI,
with the addition of the extended footbox as a no cost option the stainless brake line kit has undergone a revision too. Now all of the residual valves and fitting are mounted on the front of the footbox as opposed to inside.
