![]() Step 4: Weld hydro in (this requires additional work to cut and fit.) This is how the fittings will be oriented when installed. Step 3: Install brass m10-m12 adapters on the master and Dsc control unit using Teflon tape. Step 2: remove brake line from master and Dsc control unit. Step 1: Remove upper cowl and heat shield for brake master cylinder. The ability to weld or drill holes and get bolts. ISR handbrake $120? (I got mine for $60 on Black Friday) So here is the easiest, idiot proof DIY ever! This will give you an idea of what you need to do.So when I was looking for info on how to do this all I found was some dude who had drawn out an overly complicated line setup that was illegible. If there are systems already available, have a look into them and see how they work. Or, maybe use a brake caliper with multiple psitons and blank off the oilways so that you can have a seperate oil circuit for each piston? Using a master cylinder that is too small to fill the caliper piston will not give a usefull handbrake. The only other way i could see of doing it is to either use a cleverly thought put manifold system to redirect the hydraulic flluid as needed - expensive!!! using a matched handbrake master cylinder. Thats why cars that utilise the rear brake caliper for the handbrake, use a cable system rather than hydraulics for the above reason. While this would work, you will find that when you apply the cars brakes then release the foot brake once the vehicle has slowed the piston will not back off as the fluid will not be able to return to the main brake cylinder. ![]() You would need a check valve in the line for the handbrake too. You would need to fit a check valve in the braking system line to the rear brakes to prevent the fluid from flowing back the the main brake master cylinder when you apply the handbrake. And vice versa when you operate the main brakes. You found your problem out, when tapping into the cars hydraulic braking system every time you operate the handbrake master cylinder the fluid as you found will just flow back to the main brake master cylinder which as you found will over flow. Over flowing reservoir and soaking rags around it. ![]() We found we were just pumping fluid from hydraulic handbrake to calipers back to cars reservoir under bonnet. The independent system (we thought) never filled up with brake fluid?īaffled we checking for leaks and puddles. Plumbed separate reservoirs to each inlet (Back holes)īled system to find that. Ran braided hoses from each rear caliper to hydraulic handbrake outlets (Front holes) Put original rear brake lines back together.ĭrilled and threaded second inlets into each rear brake caliper. Please whats the dealeo? What do I have to do?Ģnd Attempt: Hoping to bypass car brake systems Hydraulic handbrake pressure was weakly slowing car. Problem: There was no locking of rear wheels even with clutch depressed and mate pulling hydraulic handbrake up with two hands. ![]() Ran braided hoses from each hydraulic handbrake outlets (Front holes) to brake pipes going to rear. Ran braided hoses from each brake pipe coming from front to hydraulic handbrake cylinder inlets (Back holes). We cut both rear brake lines, under car, behind passenger seat. I have a 2 cylinder (0.7) hydraulic hand brake.
