can i complete my 4ws delete and remove the lines off the front 4ws rack?

and after removing the lines can i use non 4ws rack bushings and brackets?

i'll like to remove the unnecessary piping on and around the rack itself, has anyone done this?

Best thing to do would be to do it all at one time. I used everything from a 1g dsm. Rack,lines and res. all bolts in perfect

My old vr4 I used oil pan drain bolts to plug the two openings on the rack where it connects the lines going towards the rear....

I did the same thing brunoboy did before I swapped to a 1G rack. Oil drain plug bolts thread right into the rack ports. Just put a little locktite on the threads, and use a crushwasher.

thanks guys, i have oil drain plugs but the number 5 line might be cooked and i would hate to have ta address a leak later

i really want to know if i can remove every line and plug all 5 holes on the rack?

or should i just go with a 1g manual rack?
