The fuel lines were tied with tie-wraps and 1/2" (12.7 mm) rubber fuel hose lengths. The vent hose was tied in as well by running it through short lengths of fuel hose and using tie-wraps to hold the rubber hose and protect the vent line from chafin

I stuffed the brake line back into the aircraft, tied it all down and screwed it to the swing arm. Bolted the new caliper to the brake disk and torqued it to 90 in-lbs.

First try was just to bolt the BSPP banjo onto the brake. Needless to say, that was just too simple to work. It wouldn't seat properly in the BSPT brake.
