Hi Rob,

here are some pics from my routing. All hard tube from the= cockpit to the wing bay. Teflon/steelbraided to the caliper. The caliper ha= s a 45=C2=B0 steel fitting. 
My runway is only 2200ft long, s= o I want to get sure the brake works.
The matco brake was useless o= n short runways!!  The grove (magnesium) works great, also get the TK5 (= Ong) dampers from Lancair, they are worth the money.
Also get the s= econd gear microswitch (Zavatson style), they are fare more accurate!

Can anyone share picture= s of how they routed brake lines from the brake caliper up the gear leg and t= o a hard point in the wheel well?  I had some brake lines made a long t= ime ago (Aeroquip 666 with Teflon) and now it's time to install them, and I'= m not sure how to route them.  It seems kind of tight between the fitti= ng on the caliper and the brake disc.  (Maybe I need to replace the 90 d= egree fitting with a 45 degree...)
 
I believe the plan was to go from the brake caliper, up the leg, to an a= nchor point on that half-rib, then transition to a hard line into the cockpi= t.
 
I have the newer Matco brakes.  That would mean something like 10-= 15 years old.  ;-)   I have the new rotors introduced af= ter several of you experienced fractured rotors.
 
I'm sure there are better options out there, but I'd really like to fly= this puppy this year and it will work for a while.  In a few years per= haps I'll switch to Grove or Beringer or Cleveland.  So please don't dr= ag this thread over there.  (Wait for a few years -- when it's time to u= pgrade I'll want to know all about those!!)
 
Thanks, guys.
