[TECH HELP NEEDED] Brake hoses Question

[hombre@elp.rr.com (John Erickson)]

The two "extra" hoses run over the top of the rear axle.  I'm guessing you 
have no use for them.  I didn't bother installing mine (I installed the 
other four) because I didn't feel like taking an extra day to do my brake 
job.  I think you need to drop the axle to get to them.  Since the 8v 
doesn't have this "feature," no worries!
