You will also hate the hose fit. The DRM hose is much larger than the LG spindle duct fitting. I just wrapped my spindle duct with friction tape until the fit was close. Others have obtained smaller hose that fits the LG spindle ducts and slips inside the DRM duct extension. I will do this after the DRM hose starts to wear.

They do work. What are you doing for brakes now that you have all that cooling?

Good luck
Thanks for the input! I am to the point where I am going to be securing the DRM ducts in place and I will follow your lead there.

The only other brake related projects have been Motul fluid, speed bleeders, SS lines (w/ AN fittings) and Carbotech XP10/XP9 pads.

Thanks again.
