Default those rear disc brake convertors

well... to make things short, i can bolt on everything off an Ls integra complete rear trailing arm assembly along with lower control arms. now here is what i need some how to do advice on:

-installing stainless steal brake lines (front and rear)
-bleeding brakes
-installing the (dohc vtec del sol) ebrake cables

i would appreciate a rough estimate upon the difficulty level, and how to complete each of those if possible.

i was going to pay 200$ to get it all done but it looks rather simple. i'm a little doubtful of my skill and i don't want to be messing around with my brake system either. i might kill you people in southern california if my **** don't stop... anyway, thanks. i appreciate the time and help.

well it depends on what year your car is. The lower control arms will work if its a 92-95 civic or 93-97 delsol. the 96-00 civics use different lower control arms, but the trailing arms will bolt up. 88-00 civics and 90-01 integras have the same trailing arms, it's the upper and lower control arms that are different. You can use the upper control arms you already have. The e-brake cables just unhook and bolt to the bottom of the car and handle inside.

94 ls parts.
i got a 94 del sol.

i can bolt all of it on, but i'm afraid i might screw sumthing up wen i install: the ebrake cables and stainless steal lines

and i have no idea upon how to bleed the brakes correctly. this is going to be my first time with this.

To put on the brake lines you need a 10mm flare nut wrench and a rubber hammer.
First disconnect the brake line from the brake pipe. When there disconnected take the brake hose clip out(you should have new ones with the new lines). You can use some needle nose wire clips and just yank hard.

Then you can take the banjo bolt off the caliper and replace with the new one you should have. Putting them back on is the same way just back words. The rubber hammer is for putting the brake hose clip back on.

With mine I had a little piece of clear rubber on the hose I lined that up with the back side of the arm(whatever you call it) that connects to the upper control arm because that would be the only part of the brake line I could see rubbing.

The rear is the same but less mounting points.

The hand brake line I will get back to you on since I haven't removed mine yet I cant say for sure
