Removing all the brakes today....

[RSKTAKR]

Was curious if there is any certain "tricks" or special tools needed to getting the brembos and the rear brakes all off. I am taking them to get them all powder coated.

I'm about to do the same thing. How do you plan to keep the fluid from completely draining out?

Don't know just yet lol. Decided to wait until tomorrow evening in hopes of getting that part figured out. I doubt there is a way to just plug the lines to as they are probably banjo fittings. Someone else has to have done this already and would know.

Put each line into a water bottle and let the lines hang in the bottles.

You'll need 500ml to 1000ml of fluid to bleed your brakes later.

They are banjo fitting, and since I wasn't sure if the brake hoses could be pinched/crushed in a line sealing tool, I lost all my fluid into little cups.

Needed a pressure bleeding system to bleed them properly.

I was thinking 4 individual bottles like that.

So did you get yours off yet? I am planning on doing mine Saturday. I was told it was pretty easy and should only take about 45 min. and then bleeding them should be easy to. I am going to replace the stock bleeder valves with some speed bleeder valves so bleeding is easy.

Taking mine off on Thursday. Getting them powder coated next weekend.
