Default Goodridge brake lines with T/C

Maybe stupid question! Just recently purchased these, where do the 2 traction control lines install & is there a write up for installing them?

the 2 middle rubber brake lines are above the rear end towards the drivers side. You will need 12mm and 14mm line wrenches to move the rubber lines from the hard lines.

I installed these on my SS, and the factory brake clips were not compatible with the Goodridge ones, anyone fine a way to make that connection? Do they even matter or serve much purpose?

I'm not sure how much of a purpose they serve. My Goodridge lines came with new clips that had a slightly different design than the stock ones. You might check with Goodridge about having them send you some.

Thanks for the response. I hope I don't run into a problem too!
There are new bolts & fittings in the pack so I hope it goes ok.

just make sure you don't over-tighten the banjo to caliper bolts, the caliper is aluminum so be careful. Also, spray all of the fittings and bolts with PB blaster, etc. a day or two before you start.
