Just finished rotors/pads/front ss brake lines/sways - Still have to do the shocks and rear ss brake lines. I have F45 suspension and the connection for the flex brake line is located behind the F45 gizmo. I need to do the bypass mod before I install Z06 shocks. (I didn't realize this when I started the project) I agree, maybe I'm a dummy, but it was messy for me as well and with the drama with the shocks I just didn't want to monkey around with that F45 crap in the back. At least I didn't let the master cylinder run of of fluid. Thanx Matt, I used your write up as a install and bleeding guide.
