Hi everyone!

 

I'm going to be fitting braided brake lines to my car in the next couple of days, if I manage to work out how to route the lines through the line clips, that is. On the front calipers, the lines form an 'S' shape, going through two retaining clips.

 

The problem is the lines that I bought (From SE, the 'Exact' brand) do not have the metal bits on the lines that the clips fit into (The rubber lines have two metal bits that the clips fit into).

 

How then do I route the lines? I cant just feed them through the holes for the clips as they would chafe with steering and suspension movement.

 

Anyone got any ideas?

 

ThankZ

Hansn't anyone fitted these to their car?

 

I've got the master cylinder off my car at the moment because it's got a leak, saying as I'm going to have to flush/bleed the system, now is an ideal time to put the lines on but I can't work out how they are supposed to fit into the clips!!

Sorry m8. No ideas. Mine was exactly the same, but i just left them.

Please let me know if you find a way.

Hello John,

 

I just did my brakes 2 weeks ago and know the problem u have. If I remember rightly, the lines that s.e advertized were the same as the ones made by bsr aerotec. I think ur gonna have 2 return them cos they are supposed to have 2 locators on each line and will have 2 be taken apart 2 be put on.
