    Question for yall, if I'm only using the front brakes do I need any kink of plugs or anything to seal off the rear lines?

    Also probably gonna get the nylon kit from Jegs instead. https://www.jegs.com/i/Allstar-Perfo...48019/10002/-1

      Yes, the rear brake line needs to be capped off or you fluid will continue to flow out. I've never done anything like that though.

        On second thought the fluid to the rears need some place to go or your brake pedal won't work the front brakes. It will be like a lock inside your master cylinder. I could very well be wrong. I'm sitting here trying to reason this out in my head. You might be able to empty the back half of the master cyl8nder.

          My final thoughts on this. There should be a proportioning valve somewhere down stream of the master cylinder and if you cap off the rear line down stream of the valve I think the fronts will work right.
