Title: Front caliper pipes
Post by: JohnFol on December 22, 2024, 05:19:04 PM
Hi all just refitting front calipers and wanted to double check which pipe goes where. Currently have them like this, so red to red, and blue to blue.

Is that right?

That's right John, they don't cross over each other.

Nigel, the photo shows the blue as top at the hard line and bottom at the fixing on the strut, so I think they cross over?

It's probably better to view the pipes as 'inner' (red) and 'outer' (blue). Both can continue on their current path without crossing over when they go out of sight behind the suspension strut.
