+1 It may not be nutil next year but these were on my list of things to do so thanks for scoop on whats up with these.
 
warthog5, did you run into any problems with the front banjo bolts being to long? I got the right ones for the calipers, but they are to long. Even on the oem caliper the factory bolt is too long for the fitting.
Any pics on the end that attached to the caliper?
Thanks :)

Sorry it took me so long to see this thread again and update guys.

No problems with the Banjo fitting or bolt on mine.

It is a little scary when using a standard 1/2in drive torque wrench to torque the banjo bolt. [35ftlbs] It seems like you have so much mechanical advantage that you could wring it off. But that is the proper torque.

Sorry no pixs of them.

The next time I have it on stands with the wheels off, I plan to do some measuring.

I have found some sites that have all the components listed separate and I believe that these can all be bought cheaper than the $180 I had to pay thru Classic Tube. Never mind the freaking aggravation and Piss poor service. :mad:

The Banjo fitting from Classic Tube is straight and it really should be offset to have a better fit.

I got them on with no leaks :)

Thanks for the help guys!

Taking the plunge. What was the issue/resolution with your banjo bolts being too long?
