I pulled out the front caliper. Looked actually newer and pads were good, but wet. I'm not sure where the leak came from exactly, but I went ahead and bought 2 new SS calipers from corvette Specialties along with new pads.
Unfortunately, I wan't able to unscrew the hose from the hard line. It was already shot and rounded over. Darn it! I bought a replacement front line, but I can't even begin telling you how impossible it is to put it up through there!
I'm trying to unbolt my compressor to see if that gives me more room. Otherwise, I unbolted then tore out (literally) the orginal line from below. For now, I clipped off the line before it went up and into the junction box.
I can't even attempt to put a small wrench around the bottom junction line to even loosen it let alone take it off. It points down against the frame. Maybe if the other wheel is off i can reach it, otherwise...
I'm wondering, could I keep the line in there and splice it. I have a double flaring/tube kit.
All this work- I'm doing the brake job but I initially wanted to farm out the line (and then they needed bledding again). They wanted $90-100/hour. No way. I don't even think professionals could do this better than I am.
Any ideas on installing the front hard line?
