Disc brake Conversion questions
For those that have done a disc brake conversion , can you offer some guidance on a couple things I’m wrestling with?
Is it necessarily better to have 1/4” main line vs. 3/16”? The research I’ve done shows conflicting results, since you need reducers to the hydraulic brake actuator and the T-fittings. Titan’s brake line kit only offers 1/4” main lines for Triple axles.
Is mounting the HBA closer to the axles to shorten the main line more effective than upgrading to the 1/4” line?
I’ve also seen that it is advisable to keep the HBA wires no longer than 25’ and to use 10 gauge wires. If this is the case, I could mount the HBA in a compartment right above the front axle.
Finally, I’ve read a couple reviews that the Titan actuator has about a 1 second delay. For this reason, I’m considering the Dexter HBA. Thoughts?
Thanks!
