Re: Brake pipe questions

Thanks for the info on the MoT, I figured it was strick but had no idea how thorough the exame was. When I lived in Arizona and had to do emmissions tests I thought that was bad. This seems like it could leave a little room for interpretation on the inspectors part, that's never good.

From a quick search on the internets it looks like 3/16" pipe is used from the master cylinder to the two front brakes and 1/4" is run to the rear. The suggestion was that if you have disk brakes in the back it is definately worth doing 1/4". How ever if it is drum brakes in the back 3/16" is addequate. I couldn't find the flair details or the thread sizes.
