Brembo brakes

[Amacron]

I have read all the brembo brake threads.

I cannot find the answer I am looking for so here it goes

I am in the process of replacing my non pp brakes with the 50 anniversary brembos.
Can I reuse the brakes lines for the non pp car when I replace them with the brembos?

Do I need new banjo bolts?

Does any one have the instructions in PDF from the Ford shop manual for installing them and for bleeding the brakes?

I did the swap myself. I got stainless steel lines for the stock 4 piston and they happened to work with the Brembos. I don't see why the stock ones wouldn't fit if the aftermarket ones did. Mine didn't come with new bolts, used the stock ones and they're still working fine. Hope this helps!

I did the swap from the 4-piston to the Brembos. I reused everything except, replacing the copper washer in the banjo bolt! The copper washers are there to make it a tight seal if not it will leak if you reuse them. I made this mistake and have the brake fluid leak on my wheels and they have stained them. Just go any autozone and buy the copper washers. I can't remember the sizes, but i'm sure autozone carries them. There is 4 copper washers that needs to be replaced with the swap.

Yea don't reuse the copper washers. Such a cheap part but pain in the ass to replace because you have to re-bleed everything.

Yeah, I wasted a bottle of Motul 600 :headbonk: but I was lucky that I kept double checking and found it leaking. Anyone reading this thread please learn from my mistakes!
