When fitting braided hoses...

[KL_RCS]

..why aren't these rear ones replaced?...

Cheers,

becuse theres no fittings there for them to be removed and replaced?

could just change who whole rear axle lines for braided ones, then youd be cool!

how did you make that red arrow?

it looks f**king awesome

 

[Fred@BTM]

because that is a high pressure one piece line

This got me slightly - I had to go looking for where the rear braided lines went, but I'm guessing because it's all connected to the rear beam, this hose does not need to flex as much, and thus is a stiffer, high pressure job as Fred says.

Okay, thanks chaps. Will be fitting my Goodridge set today

Spuzzcake - arrow was created in good ole' MS Paint.

The one arrowed is braided under the rubber covering if I remember correctly, therefore no need to replace as a braided line in a kit.

When you come to replace the lines, undo one of the bleed nipples and press the brake pedal to the floor, catching the fluid.
keep the pedal pressed down by using a lever bar or extension of some sort, and fix it in place, this will stop the reservoir and fixed lines from emptying, makes less mess and bleeding easier.
Hope this helps......
