MerlinGTI 3 Posted April 5, 2008 Upon servicing the rear brakes this morning I discovered my passenger side rear brake pipe (the metal bit that goes to the cylinder) is seized in the also knackered wheel cylinder. I need a new one, phoned pug and they dont do them. I dont want to take my car to a garage and have one made because I dont trust anyone with my baby and it will be expensive. Can they be purchaced in the right length? or should I invest in a flaring tool and buy some pipe? Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom Fenton 1,525 Posted April 5, 2008 I make my own, but otherwise you may find a local motor factor or garage can make you up a new pipe quite cheaply if you take the old one to them as a sample. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sussex_gti 0 Posted April 5, 2008 Just take it out complete and take it to a garage and get one made. Might as well do both sides while your there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ORB 227 1 Cars Posted April 6, 2008 It will work out very well in your favour to buy a 5 metre roll of pipe, and a big bag of mixed conectors along with a flaring tool (decent one) You will be able to make all your pipes till your heart is content. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tom Fenton 1,525 Posted April 7, 2008 3/16" pipe, M10x1 unions. A decent motor factor will have both in stock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
