I've done some searches and it appears all have run into the same thing I see.....the rear brake calipers are fitted with rigid brake lines yet need to be moved out of the way for pad replacement.

I was thinking of changing the hard lines to a flex line. Anyone try to do this already ? If so, give me some input.

I'm thinking of getting a male inverted flare to male jic adapter for either end and then making a flex stainless steel hose to run between the adapters with #4 JIC female swivel ends (we make these hoses in our shop so its not big deal). I may have to make the male inverted flare to male JIC adapters if nobody makes them.

This sure would facilitate changing pads at the track.
