Ok sinces I now have front & rear steer and an atlas this will enable me to do front and rear digs. Therefore to take advantage of that i install 2 cutting brakes. One for the front and other rear. Now there are several different types of CNC cutting brakes but I went for the units that have a single master cylinder and have one level that you must pull on to use. I chose one with blue (Front) lever knob and red (Rear) the other.
With the cutting brakes I needed approx 8m of -3 Eaton/Aeroquip braided brake hose. Basically I need 4 lots of 2m sections with fittings fitted either end. I use a combination of manual/reuseable fittings and DOT crimp fittings. There are a bucket load of fitting types ie NPT, SAE & JIC blah blah so make sure you get the correct ones first time.

I spent some time recently looking into cutting brakes and the options are soo many. I like your exact set up . Simple and easy to use. Virtually fail safe. Alot of guys talk about ABS style with four master cylinders (1 for each corner ) running through a computer and bla bla bla. I did my first "burn turn" last night and it was so cool. Takes me back to my burnout brakeys in the Charger days. Only this time its with the front axle. Ha ha...
Nice one Mczook.
Bonnet?

My next job was to do some clearancing of the rear bar and Qrt panels in order to get better lock with the 4ws. So I decided to remove the rear bumper and body mounts. So out came the grinder!
