Command Strips. This leaves no adhesive residue after removal upon sale of vehicle.

The Command Strip's elastic nature also serves to isolate the bleed nipple from bothersome engine vibrations. Good thinking.

Finished the install today on my remote clutch bleed setup - I had been waiting on the adapter to arrive. Install was relatively easy, and once completed, bleeding the clutch was a breeze! Very happy to add this mod to my 9 - and thanks to Andreas for the excellent pics and write-up.

Just report the DB. When you quote the spammer, you're just propagating the links.

To make the remote connection is the bracket really needed? Couldn't the hose be tied up out of harm's way and just used when needed?

Sure, but you're then juggling two wrenches - one to hold the fitting at the end of the clutch line, and the other to tighten or loosen the bleed nipple. Not ideal in the least.

Ever tried to bleed a brake caliper that's hanging in the air?

Perfect fit, very light and a glorious exhaust note paired with Fister Stage 1 cans.

Default RS lightweight Remote Bleed Bracket







I just completed fabrication of the lightweight RS variant of Andreas’ remote bleed bracket. This bracket uses aerospace grade aluminum and a proprietary cold set process for shaping. It also has the innovative offset design for bent hose clearance. It boasts a significant weight savings over the original AOW design.

Maybe remove it and drill a few holes to further reduce the weight.
