and fresh fluid I retract my prior statment about the s8 brakes. they are pretty darn good.

One note, the lines were corroded, i could brake them loose but they would have destroyed the metal lines if I had not heated them with a torch to break them free. (The flare fittings were not spinning freely on the metal line.. they were bound up)

On the note of the stainless lines, 3 of 4 of them had the jacket damaged which would allow dirt and water contaminents in to do damage to the lines.. glad those are now off the car.
