Pictures of caliper line connections?

Hi,

I'm staring at braided lines and the fittings that came with the kit for the standard Corvette brakes and they're not quite going to fit. Using the pieces in the kit, the front lines would install into the caliper parallel to the surface of the rotors/pads and the braided line with straight AN connections on either end will do a slow and long 90 degree turn towards the chassis. That's not going to work. You also can't screw a 90 degree fitting in because there's no space to turn the fitting, especially on the fronts.

How did you guys mount the lines? Did you use lines with an eyelet like the OEM C6 Corvette ones? Did you screw in a male-male adapter into the calipers and then use a female-male 90 degree fitting? Other solutions?

Thanks,

Tim

Banjo fittings.....they come from another vendor and were on back order...should arrive this week.

We had to modify our hard lines to put them in the proper position which meant cutting the line and re flaring it this allowed the braided lines to be in the right location,and the right direction with the room to attach the braided lines, attached with straight line connectors and let the braided lines do the bending, it was the rear with the most problem

I believe they are Camaro SS calipers and not C6 Corvette.
