Rear Foot Brake Question

[mudder700]

All you guys that are running a rear foot brake, where are you mounting the master cylinder and what are you doing for a brake line, I would love to get a stainless brake line the right length. Let me know. Thanks, any pics?

[wvspeedfreak]

The master cylinder mounts to a plate that is bolted to your swing arm mount.The heel guard is kind of in the way here but I took a couple pics for you.I will have to measure the line but I think it is somewhere around 42 inches............I THINK :p

I am sorry, I meant the resivour or how ever you spell that word, I am tired tonite, thanks VW, where did you get your brake line from, was it custom made?.Thanks

WV, is that the kit that DRR offers? Can you post a pic of its mounting points? I am going to be adding Foot breaks to all four of ours I think this winter.


Thanks

Yes, that is the one that I gave to DRR to copy and import for all mini quads. I have made a few more tweaks to the design since then, but it still works great. It comes foot pedal to hose and are baked enamel paint... almost as durable as powdercoating.

No problem.I just made a short bracket to mount the reservoir to and zip tied the line to the frame.
The ss line to the rear caliper I had custom made.Any race car shop should be able to do one for you.

Yes.Like Brad said ,this is the foot brake he designed and drr uses (thanks again Brad!!).Here is a pic from behind.You will need to drill a hole to put a 1/4" bolt through to lock the plate in place so it can't turn.

Here is a shot from the front and you can see where the swingarm bolt goes through.Hope this helped.
