DIY: Hydraulic Handbrake Install

I made my own setup with a wilwood master so that the lever comes up through the cigarette lighter hole (I like having a full interior) Tons of fun though!
One important thing for anyone using the wilwood master, make sure you order some fittings with it!! wilwood uses an obscure 7/16-20 fitting that no store nearby had.... I had to wait another week before i could put it in :(

I was thinking about that, the valve i installed could be turned on and still have full use of the e brake and you could technically still use the brakes, though you'd just be using the fronts.
Dual caliper setup is nice, but until costs go down its nearly an additional 400ish

It is expensive. I can't argue that; I paid more around 5-6 after getting the pads and shipping, and I know at my level of driving, I'm not taking full advantage of them.

Sometimes you'll actually want to left foot brake while applying the handbrake which becomes problematic with an inline set up.E-9 Motorsports

Who else wants to post up a pic of their hydro hand brake setup? I want to mount mine further back than most posted here so as to keep the front portion of the console around the shifter but get rid of the rear part. I also have to keep the cable system for safety inspections and in case I ever get stopped by Police or Vehicle Compliance. I could probably get away with getting a friend at work do the inspection, but it's not worth the risk if someone who knows what they're looking at gets nosy later on.For all things 24v, check out Markert Motorworks!Originally posted by mbonanniI hate modded emtree, I hate modded cawrz, I hate jdm, I hate swag, I hate stanceyolokids, I hate bags (on cars), I hate stuff that is slowz, I hate tires.
