drooartz Gold Member Yoda Registered: 03/11/05 Posts: 5498 Loc: Utah, USA	Okay, I loosely put the soft lines on my new brake calipers. I think I did the banjo bolt and washers correctly, but I'd like some confirmation. Here's my setup: Banjo bolt head > large washer > line > small washer > caliper Did I do this right? _________________________ Drew Frink -- http://www.drooartz.com '59 AH Sprite (The Tunebug), '07 Triumph Bonneville, '09 Honda Fit Sport "Isn’t it cute how, no matter now much work a Bugeye needs, he still smiles?" -- my wife

I can't see paying $7 to ship 4 washers..and I can't think of anything else I need from Moss/VB.. I thought someone once said a motorcycle shop might have them?
