I finally got around to getting that leaking hulk of metal called the ABS pump out of my engine bay today. It was pretty easy, I had to remove the cruise control computer to get it out of there, but after I figured that out it was no big deal. Those harness connectors are a pain to get to though! So here's the problem: I went to hook up the mazdatrix delete kit that I had purchased and mated the rear lines no problem. Now, it is impossible to link together the front brake lines (2 from the master, 1 to the brakes)! The kit provided me with a double-female hose for the rear lines, and a metal block with 3 female connections for the front ones. How the heck to you get those hard lines into that block?!?!? Am I missing some hoses? If the solution is just to get my hands on some hoses to attach them all where can I get them?

Thanks!

uh i purchased the exact kit and it fit well..you have to bend the lines slightly to make them go down to the block..they should screw right in. then use the hose as an extension for the last line. here is a pic sorry only camera fone..

wow, my lines look completely different from that picture. I guess cuz it's an s5, but there would have to be some MAJOR bending in the lines, enough that I am worried about breaking them. Any one esle have some more pics?

i just bent my lines too so that they would fit. if your worried about breaking them you can get a line bender from advanced auto or auto zone and use it to bend the lines a lot smoother than using your hands
