So tidy Tom you've done a good job there I just worry in the first photo the break lines look a little exposed, I'm sure the t piece is supposed to mounted vertically on the vertical face of the rear part of the rear sub frame if that makes sense?


I,ll see if I can find a pic

thanks mate i have no idea on brake lines as i havent fitted them. but they work great to say its single line now. cheers

[tractor]

Not so much vertical then but maybe a little more out of the way than you've got it at the moment

i get you mate i think he has bolted it there because where it usually goes the little tag you bolt it to on the subframe snapped so there was a hole there to fasten it two ile see if it can be moved tho.

[tractor]

The bottom pic is proberly the best set up, the main line from the front comes along next to the exhaust then goes up between the subframe and the body over the top of the subframe and then down and joins into the t piece

The top pic ain't a very good example actually

The mot guy might have something to say about your current set up

you see where the t piece is in your picture it bolts to a little metal tab i havent got that peice on my subframe so might have to renew it or pop rivet one on.

[tractor]

I'll go see what mine looks like a sec

[tractor]

Yeah I've got a little tab on mine, I thought I did

If I were you I'd bend and paint a bit of tin and just pop rivet it like you say

It'll stop the lines from flexing and bend because eventually they'll snap

All pipes are routed right the just need tidying up that's all
