Rear brake lines
Rear brake lines
A body know of somewhere I can get replacements ready made - my rear lines are nearly worn through.

Re: Rear brake lines
You can get them already made up from EuroCarParts - I replaced some on my red one in advance of the MOT.
Re: Rear brake lines
GSF - £25 each, 6N0611763J & 6N0611764J if anyone needs them in the future
P.S.
Has anyone got any tips for this job, any specific tools make it easier?
Thanks,
Dan

Flared brake hose spanner
9x11 and a 12x14 one is the answer

Re: Rear brake lines
Penetrating oil, a wire brush and a butane heat gun - oh and a bit of patience 
Re: Rear brake lines
Cheers, only things I'm missing are the 12x14 spanner and the patience 
Re: Rear brake lines
Alex, what size are the nuts? I know one is 11mm but what about the others? Saves me buying 2 more spanners if it's just a 12mm. Halfords do a 13&14 and a 10&12.alexperkins wrote:Flared brake hose spanner
