[T3] Center brake line too short...AGAIN?!


Hey all,

I posted a few weeks ago that when I installed a replacement center brake
line (front to back) it appeared to be a few inches too short.  I read from
the list that it is best to use one that is 87" (220 cm) long so one has a
little extra room to play with.  I had a 220cm line made and installed it
yesterday.  I left the too short line in place and used it to pull the new
line past the pedal assy and out the back end so I didn't have the
opportunity to measure it before buying the replacement.  Guess what?  The
new line is also too short.  What gives?  Should I have very little room to
work with?  An extra 2 inches on each end would be heaven (4" total).  Am I
just doing something wrong?

In case you didn't ready my post of a few weeks ago, I am replacing a
center brake line installed by the PO that dangles underneath the car from
the MC to the junction for the rear brakes.  

Thanks for your help,

John
Zagreb, Croatia
