We want to be sure that we have not crossed the brake lines from the bias valve to the master cylinder. One fitting on the bias valve is a greater diameter than the others - which side of the master cylinder should it go to?**
Thanks, Luke

Does Anybody have a picture of their car underneath so we can check how the pipes run
Thanks, Luke
Not the best picutre, but may be some help to you buddy. :cool:

I "think" one of the fixing nuts is one size up? Could be wrong as been a while since I took it all off, but looking at the picture it does appear to look like larger nut size on the right? :confused:
Anyway, the line/feed in goes on the top rear as seen in the pic. :agree:
Here's another one, poor picutre, but may be of use. :agree:

When fitting the lines i got off you, using too much forced i snapped the front solid pipe. Just hacksaw off a little bit of the solid pipe. Get a new union and get it re flared. Easy enough to do.

Me or Luke? :confused: Yeah, the lines etc are a bit on the fragile side, I use special brake line ring'd spanners that have a cut out on them to slot over the line if you get what I mean. :agree:
