![]() ![]() ![]() See the third product picture for an example of the bulkhead locations. ![]() ![]() These are the ports you will connect to for an Inline / Single Rear Caliper Handbrake Brake Line Kit. If you are unsure, trace the rear brake lines underneath the car to see if they are single or dual - that is the most obvious way to tell.īulkhead Locations - The E36 and E46 drilling locations for the bulkheads on Inline and Standalone Hydro Handbrake Brake Line Kits is at least 24" apart, and 1-2" back from the start of the flat portion behind the rear seats. T he only exception is for early 1995 M3's and Compact (TI) models using single rear hardlines. The early models are equipped with a single brake hardline from the M10x1.0 ABS port to the rear of the car, and the later models are equipped with 2x rear hardlines from the M12x1.0 and M10x1.0 ABS ports.

We guarantee a leak free start up if this product is installed correctly.īBE means Brake Booster Eliminator and OEMC means OE Master Cylinder (stock).īe sure to check the Chase Bays Hydro Handbrake. We use the best components in the industry and we pressure test every line we assemble. The kit uses -3AN stainless steel braided, Teflon PTFE lined, black PVC coated lines. If you ever change from inline to standalone setup, you will just connect the rear brake line(s) in the engine bay and at calipers like you had before, and then use this existing kit to connect to your new calipers. This does eliminate the entire hardline that runs under the chassis and the lines that currently connect to your calipers. We use bulkhead fittings to pass thru the chassis metal so either smoke or weather doesn't have another path to get into the cabin. It will then run from the Handbrake OUT section to the back of the car directly to the calipers. Then in either scenario it goes to the Handbrake IN side. It starts at the factory master cylinder OR if you have the Chase Bays Brake Line Relocation for Brake Booster Eliminator it starts at the Bias Valve OUT side. Essentially creates a detour for the fluid. Inline / Pass Thru Type - This is to be plumbed between the existing rear brake line to lock up the existing rear calipers on each side. It goes directly from the Handbrake Master Cylinder to the secondary calipers on the rear knuckles. Stand Alone Type - This is to be paired with dual rear caliper setup or stand alone rear braking system. The Chase Bays Hydro Hand Brake Line Kit is designed for those who want to easily plumb a hydraulic hand brake into their BMW E36 chassis. For a full range of brake fittings and plumbing solutions, please see the motorsport braking section. Some hydraulic hand brakes are supplied with or without master cylinders. Certain hand brakes also include a locking mechanism for when the hand brake is used for securing the vehicle in place. The advantage of the vertical lever is that it is able to be mounted closer to the reach of the driver, allowing a quick application of the handbrake when needed and keeping the hands closer to the wheel at all times. The range of hydraulic handbrakes available here at Demon Tweeks includes options for a conventional horizontal operating lever or a vertical lever. This means that the hand brake provides a more positive feel for the amount of pressure being applied as well as being more consistent without the potential for stretching the cable and therefore losing its capability to apply the brake. Whereas most road cars are fitted with cable operated hand brakes, these hydraulically operated alternatives are better suited for motorsport competition due to being plumbed directly into the braking hydraulics. Hand brakes are an important component in rallying and are frequently used in drifting and autotests in order to carry more speed through corners and to have an extra level of control over the balance of the car. ![]()
