It's definitely the hard lines bud.. You can pick them up from any local parts store for pretty cheap, but I am guessing that you will need a custom length.. Judging by you pictures, I assume that the factory ones were not long enough when you installed the spindles, and by the looks of it, you straightened them out so that they would fit.. Then with them being unsecured, it looks like when your suspension drooped, your rubber flex lines ran out of slack, thus tugging on the hard lines, fatiguing them at the fitting and eventually lead to your current failure... I could be way off, but given the evidence provided, the above stated scenario is highly likely..

Again, it's an easy fix, and a longer set of hard lines, and securing them properly will definitely solve your current brake issues.. I have a pretty busy week with work but if you don't get it solved by Thursday, I will try to make some time to help you out..

 

Looks like I may need some of your assistance too Jerry, I had to stretch my hard lines as well but they arent as bad as Nicks, been meaning to replace them and get the extended brake lines installed

 

That was a great movie, saw it at tempe marketplace earlier tonight

 

Happy to help you out as well man..

 

Do eet!

Nice! That's where I saw it too. Cine Capri ftw!

 

Lol I saw it in the Capri as well!

 

That is not the real Cine Capri!! Those are nothing but rip offs of the best movie theater Phoenix ever had!!

:steppingoffoldmansoapbox:

 

I remember seeing movies at the real Cine Capri when I was really little

 

Which movie are we talking about?

 

Elysium.

 

Ahhhh I wants to see it

 

It was good man. Better than I expected it to be.

 

Better than district 9?

 

If you liked district 9, you'll like this. It has the same feel to it. Its graphic like district 9 too. which is what I didn't expect and why i loved it that much more.

 

34yrs old and you say Old man soapbox? I am 30 and I remember that place. I guess the majority of the people on the site are in their 20's. These Cine Capri's that are around the valley are nothing like the one pictures about. That place held a whole lot more people than what new ones hold.

I miss the old one. We would go to Ed Debevics before every movie. Who remembers that place. It was near 24th Street and Camelback. I don't remember exactly where though since I was a kid when it closed.

 

Sweet, gonna check it out than

 

Man-o-ma! Ed Debevics!!!!!!! I loved that place. When ever my hockey team traveled to phoenix for a game, we always eat there. Then when we moved to the valley, I begged my parents to eat there every week. It was on Highland, behind the parking garage in the Town and Country Center (or mall or pavillion or what ever they call it). I always got a Black cow, super larger milkshake. Home of the world's smallest sundae! I still have some buttons and hats from there. The only remaining Ed's is in Chicago, a couple of my buddies and I plan to make a trip out there just to "Eat at Ed's".

There was an Italian place that began with a T that was just on the other side of the parking garage, began with a T. The turned it into my big fat greek resturant.

Both those places closed after the Cine Capri was destroyed in 1998.


I said my "old man soap box" because that is what it feels like.... "You kids don't know what it was like back in MY day!" My wife makes fun of me for it all the time. I am an Arizona native, I lived in Phoenix since 1989, a lot has changed since then, but I don't always recognize it, especially when they just change the names of mountains or things like that to make people feel warm and fuzzy. I am practicing to be a grumpy old man yelling at kids to get off my lawn or I will run them over in my Tacoma.

 

Ed Debevics! Wow we have some old school talk. My rents took me here in '78, just after I was born. I consider myself a native but I was born in Michigan.
I know PHX and how much it has grown, I miss some of the old...
Thrifty ice cream(from Thrifty not the water store), Wallace & Ladmo, watching the Suns at Veterens Memorial, Compton Terrace, the original Rawhide, baloon rides at PV Mall when it was a huge parking lot and still had desert around.
Thanks for the flashback man....

 

Lol^

 

Mmmm Thrifty ice cream. Remember Smitty's pizza?
