New brake lines - what the...

    Okay, here's another one that is going to make me feel really stupid when I get the answer. I am putting braided lines on, do the fluid holes in the bolt have to line up with the ones from the hose fitting? It *seems* there would be enough room for the fluid to circulate and make it to the holes in the bolt, but I dunno.

    So, do they have to be lines up to work properly, or do I just torque 'em and they work?

    PS - No specific mention of safety wiring banjo bolts in the book, do they or don't they have to be?

    Just stick em in, and bleed the system.We wire them.They carry fluid,better to be safe.

    Sweet, that's what I figured but I wanted to be safe. I already got out the drill to safety wire, makes sense to do it anyway. I figure I can just drill the bolt and and wire it to the fitting on its own hose.
