Default Manual Brake Setups
Ok guys I'm looking for pictures of everyone's manual brake setups.

And question number two is wat manual brake setup to go with. I thought I read here b4 that there is a couple of companies or ways to make the manual break kit work? If anyone has any info I would appreciate it. Thanx

I purchased all my manual brake stuff from Jay and Amber. Great people and company to deal with. I went with the Strange front/rear setup with the Strange master cylinder.
