Walked down to the corner of the hanger to the next line of hangers where there is a WC. This is what I saw to the Southeast. Not looking good. Went to the WC and cleaned up. Looked even more threatening after the wash. Decided to close up and go hom

Went to the hanger after work and put the brake back together. Seems to work fine. I have not safety wired it yet as I want to add fluid, bleed and give it a good test beforehand. When all tests wel,l with no leaks, I'll wire it up. Could have used a

Similarly, the screw portion is nice and flat so it won't hang up on the aluminum guard plate when pressed closed.

The final result. The banjo hose end bolts nicely to the brake. With any luck, I'll take the brake back to the airport after work tomorrow and reinstall it all and see if I can bleed the brakes.

Here's a closeup of the hose end, bolt and washers. The hose end connector is identical to that which was on the master cylinder end so this should easily replace the 90 degree AN hose end provided. We'll know better later this week when I can get to th

It took almost an hour to carefully and safely get the tap started in the aluminum brake. I sure didn't want to screw that up. Once I had a good start and the tap began to cut, I clamped the tap in the vice with the brake held high so chips fall out and

That leaves two choices: #1 - tap the brake in BSPP threads or #2 - run the BSPT die over the bolt to thread in BSPT. The brake being aluminum and the bolt being stainless steel, I decided to go with #1 as it seemed easier.
