hydro handbreak

[bones]

probably a stupid question but can you run a hyrdo handbreak on drum rear of a ae86 , if so would it be worth it and is there a guide of how to do it?

thanks

You could. It's exactly the same as doing one for calipers.

lol^^ , does it work aswell ? anyone point me in the right direction of what i need and what to do thanks

bascially you need to run the brake line that usually runs along your car to the diff, into the hydro handbrake and then the line will exit the handbrake and continue to the diff. in simple pulling the handbrake pushes the fluid to lock the rear brakes only as though you were using the brake pedal, it stumped me for a while until you think about how simple it is really

aw yeah man good info thanks heaps, just relised im a fucking idiot and cant spell brake, ahwell

[lolwat]

would that only work becuase the front and rear brakes are on a different circuit yes??? (it doesnt put fronts on too)

[johl]

yeh thats correct. the master splits into 2 lines from the master in the engine bay so the rear line goes into the master on the handbrake. so it does not affect the front brake line

do it i run one the best thing you can do for your rear tires to lock up
