more details?

Lines? Fluid?

What type of rotor?

The answer isn’t always throw new money/parts at it.

wow i completely forgot about this thread.

I have SS lines, I dont’ see how the fluid is relivent because smoking pads is not a fluid issue. usually motorcraft racing fluid.

I can’t run brake ducts there is no room I have intake/exshaust pipes in the way. The cracks start at the edge of the rotor (outer diameter) and a couple of them are about 1-1.5" long and big enough to fit a credit card in.
