    After an exhaustive search, i cant find the answer to what is probably a simple question...

    i recently bought all new rigid lines for my beast and wehn i went to replace the lines from th MC to the PV... the fittings were different sizes...

    i know i can get the tube modified to fit the existing PV but i am curious... should i replace the PV or assume that its still good... it appears to be original and its not leaking, but since i am doing the ENTIRE brrake system, i tthought i would look to see if anyone out there knows where i can get a replacement... i have looked all over my area (ATL,GA) but cant find one...

    one more probably obvious question...

    is it going to be easier to R/R the brake lines with the tub off?

    its going to get cold here in the next few months and i REALLY want to take her out for another spin before its too cold to go toppless (i dont have a top)

    thanks all!

    It gets cold in georgia?



    It's easy to cut and re-flare the lines you have to fit your porportioning valve, almost any brake shop could do it.
