Rwal bypass

Anyone got pics of how you bypassed the RWAL component on the rear of the frame?

I'm going to do a complete brake overhaul, probably a few months from now, and thought that would be a good time to do that as well. That would get me one step closer to my goal of getting completely computer-free. Just not sure of how I should go about it.

As usual, any advice is welcome.

Alright, as usual, posting a question brings up better stuff in the RELATED TOPICS section at the bottom of the page than first doing a search does.

I'll still take any advice or pictures though.

Yep...finding the best description to use in the search engine is the key to successful searchers.... something easier said than done.

I believe that Jmartin has a thread with pics and part numbers. Do an advanced search of his threads and you should find it...Mark

The fittings shown, in that link from Mark, are brake line fittings, not plumbing fittings.

The sizes are 5/16" female inside flare to 1/8" NPT for one 90 degree fitting. The other 90 is 3/8"-24 female inside flare to 1/8" NPT. Then you have the 1/8" coupling. NAPA has all these fittings.

I just ran a new line from the junction block in the front when a rear line blew and both rear lines.
