Brakes
Stainless Steel Braided Aircraft
Brake Lines
Replace rubber flexible brake hoses with Teflon lined
aircraft hoses to get the firm pedal needed for performance
driving.
Brake Fluid
Flush brake fluid COMPLETELY at least annually, but
better yet, before each track event. For ordinary use we
recommend Castrol LMA DOT 4 fluid. For even more severe
use, we recommend ATE Blue Racing Fluid. We keep pressure
bleeders charged with both types.
Brake pads
Stock brake pads tend to squeal
and cover the wheels
with black dust. Replacement with Repco/PBR pads usually
eliminates both dusting and squealing. For more aggressive
drivers, we recommend PBR MetalMaster metallic at just
slightly higher price.
