Was never totally happy with the way the brake and clutch pipes went from the chassis to the body as seemed to be in the way and just attach to the reservoir but couldn't see an alternative
That is until i got talking to Global Hydraulics who told me they could make new pipes with an elbow on each end .
Three things i had to be careful of was 1:- the angle needs to be spot on ,2:- the length needs to be spot on and 3:-the treads are different so had to identify the right thread .
Had a selection of elbows to work with and used my pipe as reference for length and angle.
Old pipe with new elbow used as templete for new pipes |
The new pipes were made and then fitted by Steve ( the perfectionist )so happy with the result bleeding is the next job but time for a beer now,
Pipes in and secured with metal bracket courtesy of Steve flex pipes secured with "P" clips |
New pipe elbows really neat job dead happy |
Huge thanks to John from Global Hydraulics ( Grimsby )
