So I was able to take my car out for a drive today. Me and my fiance were toying around with it out in the country, burnouts and speedruns, just having fun when a deer thought it would run out of the woods when I was somewhere around 70 or so...


Well I hit the brakes, felt good pressure, then felt floorboards... Managed to miss the deer though. So when I got it back into the garage at home I saw the fluid leaking from somewhere under the passenger side front tire/a-arm. Didn't have time or the patience to take a closer look...I'll save that for another weekend when I have time. Hopefully its just a brake line and not a capliper or something else.

Could be just a brake line, esp. given the age of the car and your location (up north- more rust)

Hopefully its nothing major and is an easy fix. If it is your brake line however, it might be in your best interest to replace them all before the rest go bad, if one breaks, the others can't be much behind..

Brakes are the one thing that I highly respect and don't cut corners with- you don't use them all that much, but when you need them you can't afford to not have them..

That leak sounds like it's in the area of the rubber caliper hose. Safe bet.

I agree brake line super common after a panic stop

considering where the leak is, its probably the brake lines, i replaced mine about a year ago, and the old lines were crusty as hell, so im sure its just do to age.
