Looking at some diagrams of the braking system in a 2g, seems pretty straight forward to rid of that 20 pound hydraulic unit in the front quarter.

It seems I have to split both outlets on the master cylinder.

One out split for front right and front left. The other is split, to go into the proportioning valve, which then goes to the rear.

Question is, what does this thing do on our cars. By definition, it can raise or lower pressure.

Should I keep it or is it safe to just eliminate it?

This is all for the sake of a clean as possible re tubing effort.

Second question is, what can I buy to split the lines thats gonna make a clean job, and WHERE to look for these things.

I could go to home depot, looking for more of a professional solution here. Some stainless braided lines are obvious, what about all in between?

Suggestions, and experience welcomed smile

EDIT, just realized how long its been since I was a gear head. I did this to both my 1g's, and for the life of me, cant remember a f'in thing. Lay off the weed children smile
