Very nice work, and thanks for all the pics. Is it normal to rope flex lines down on for the brakes on either side for the SAS? That's one heck of a long vulnerable looking brake line. I would have thought they'd run a flex down the centre and then steel along the axles, and a shorter flex accross the knuckles. I've never run a SAS, so I was just surprised to see the crazy long lines in your pics.

Sorry I see now how my post could have been confusing. I asked if it was normal to rope the flex lines like that, meaning only to describe how long the flex lines needed to be on the outside of the axles like that. Long enough to look like rope.
