Now you can experience the same rock-solid brake pedal that professional racers rely on. Standard brake hoses will experience some swelling under pressure which results in a soft or spongy feeling brake pedal. Teflon/Kevlar stainless-steel braided lines are comparable to those used on aerospace projects. Lines and fittings are engineered for precise fit.

Lines come ready to install with no modifications necessary. Kits replace the original front and rear flexible brake lines. DOT approved!

Brake Bleeding Power for Do-it-Yourselfers! The Motive power bleeder system allows Do-It-Yourselfers to power bleed brake systems just like the pros without the need of an assistant to pump the brakes. This is important for two reasons. First, it allows the fluid to be bled without the brake pedal going all the way to the floor, which allows the master cylinder piston to travel beyond the normal stroke and can lead to premature failure of the master cylinder. Second, many of today’s newer ABS systems are so intricate that they can only be bled with a power bleeder. The Motive bleeder is designed for frequent use and has a rugged container and generous 2 qt. fluid capacity, as well as a built-in hand pump and gauge for accurate pressurizing. The system works on the principle of pressurizing the master cylinder so that old brake fluid is forced out of the lines when the bleed screws are opened. The design keeps the master cylinder full of fluid during the process so all you have to do is open a bleed screw until fresh fluid is flowing and then proceed to the next bleeder. This tool makes the task of bleeding brakes or other hydraulic systems an almost effortless, foolproof operation. Gone is the frustration of trying to coordinate pumping the pedal, opening and closing the bleed valve, trying to keep the fluid in the master cylinder at the correct level, and keeping air out of the system.

Brake fluid is an oft over-looked service item in your Volvo. It’s a requirement to flush the brake system with new fluid when replacing the brake lines or master cylinder or any time you introduce a break in the system. To help your brake system last longer and always provide predictable braking performance, it is a good idea to flush your brake fluid every two years or 30,000 miles. We prefer to use a DOT 4 fluid to get the best performance and longevity. Ate is one of the largest OE brake parts suppliers in the world, and their brake fluid is unsurpassed.

ATE Type 200 Brake fluid is suitable for normal street driving and mild track use.

Boiling point: 280*C/536* F Ð Wet boiling point: 200* C/392* F.

If you’ve never used Brakleen you’ll be amazed at how effective it is at degreasing and cleaning grimy brake system parts. It works so well as a degreaser that we commonly use it to clean up other greasy parts. Excellent for preparing surfaces for gasket or seal replacement. Also works great to help locate oil leaks (use it to quickly clean off any suspected leaky areas for inspection). Brakleen quickly removes brake fluid, grease, oil and other contaminants from brake linings, pads, calipers, rotors etc.

Helps brakes last longer and perform more efficiently. Cleans fast/dries fast/no residue. Degreases instantly Non-flammable Works without disassembly. One 19-oz can should be enough for most brake jobs, but you might want to get 2 or 3 cans to have handy for other projects once you see how well it works.
