Hi folks,

Just restoring a 91 Turbo II, started on the brackes and naturally every line (metal line) has sheered no matter how much heat or fluid we tried, anyone know where i can get a set ready rather than get some copper pipe and try and sort it that way.

Yes they do :)
 
Front and back - haven\'t done my fronts yet - as I\'ve got a spare pair of calipers I am going to refurb and put new seals in before putting on the car.
 
This is the bracket I\'m talking about - but with the old hose attached:

I thought I\'d got a piccy of the goodrich hose before/after modding - seems I\'ve mislaid it :(
I found one \'gotcha\' with the goodrich hoses for the rear calipers - the bit that joins on to the hardline that comes through the wheel arch - the one that\'s held in by a clip - that needed filing on the last \'ring\' so that it can actually pass through that bracket and the clip actually work :(
