    And if on planning to go 'off road' now is the time to go with braided brake lines.
    Question: Ordered the 067-050 fluid reservoir and found they did not fit. Clearance problem with the pedal . How did you address the clearance issue?

    Thanks. Perhaps a 45 degree connection between the reservoir and the master cylinder?

    I talked to Mr Grove at his booth at OSH on Monday. Adding this reservoir along with double puck brakes.

    Good plan Jake. I am also putting in the double puck brakes and SS lines. Working out details, but here is the plan. Will post more details later when its all sorted.
