As mentioned as well, the tube size used feeding the brakes makes
Yes, I looked as best I could on their web site, but did not get any answer
to my inquiry. I find it very disconcerting to order stuff that you are not
familiar with, online. They do look very good and I was surprised that the
price was in line with the Matco prices. They did not show an 11 X
Yes, I also suspect the tubing and when I replace these brakes with the
Matco's that I just ordered, I am going to replace all the tubing as well
with what Matco recommends, so there will be no excuses for them to not be
working. I know it is stupid of me to not try to work through this problem

I have Matco, I drilled the axle, as per the KR instructions, made a "C"
clip to replace the split pin through the
