Martin J Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 I have some new mintex pads & discs to fit to the rears (fronts have just been done) & I think I will bite the bullet & replace the solid brake lines with braided hoses as this seems a much nicer solution. Did you need new P clips Ian? I have some spare rivets if they have to be drilled out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stationary M25 Traveller Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 No ..... left inner ones attached and restrained L-bracket for end fitting of new flexi hose with jubilee clips. Will take photos for you. I have a large selection of rivets if you need any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gasmaninaseven Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Are there any possible issues at IVA? I wonder if it worth changing for flexis after rather than before the test... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Jonathan Kay Posted September 1, 2013 Member Share Posted September 1, 2013 I've asked Darren at Caterham Parts about their recommendations for road use, and whether the photos are the wrong way round. Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7 wonders of the world Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Rigid brake lines into a floating caliper can not be viewed as an engineering solution 😔, makes me wonder how the get through IVA in this manner. Flexy's on the rear - it's a no brainer unless your happy to cut corners on your brakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Jonathan Kay Posted September 2, 2013 Member Share Posted September 2, 2013 Just had the reply from Darren: I believe they are round the wrong way online. Ideal for racers only because they are changing pads frequently so can take the caliper off quickly. Yes, you can use them on the road.Quick and helpful, as always. Jonathan PS: Thanks, John, nice to know they're not wasted. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
