Default Flexy brake pipes and rear drums ??

Whats everyone else done with the above?

I haven't bought any flexy hoses yet, but looking at it, clearance is going to be tight where is goes into the slave cylinder.

Has anyone got picture of what they did? or are doing?

Cheers Jas Gray

Cheers Ash!

If I remember correctly, didnt you get those fittings from Rally Designs? If so, would you mind telling me what I will need and how many of each! as I want to try and sort out the brakes this week?

Cheers mate

8 m10 flexi brake pipe ends. http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product...oducts_id=1520

8 bulk head lock nuts
3m braided tube

the lock nuts dont seem to be listed on the site and i cant remember which size braided tube you need. i will have a look on my invoice tonight for the part codes.




for the fixed lines you will need the following. you can get it all from cbs or most local motorfactors. i already had all the below so dont have part codes. i have plenty of male m10 ends left as i got a box of 50. if you want a few give me a shout.

roll of copper tube
11 normal m10 male ends
6 m10 female ends
2 m10 t pieces
1 m10 Brake pressure sensor

if you need any more info just ask

one for the rear split to left and right and the other for the brake pressure switch.

you can get away with one t piece on the rear if you use a mechanical brake light switch on the brake pedal.
