| Post subject: | Brake line length for a -73 Valiant |
Hopefully someone knows the exact length of the brake line, between the brake hose and the junction block, for the right front brake. The car is a 1973 Valiant with original disc brakes (no power brakes). I tried to measure the length with yarn, but it´s too inaccurate. The measurment I got with this method is 79 inches, give or take a few inches... I have to have it made from straight tube in a shop and then bend it myself so the exact length is somewhat important. I wouldn´t really have to put a new line, but I have to change the brake hose and I can´t get the "nut" to open, so I have to change them both at the same time. The annual car inspection failed due to a crack in the brake hose rubber.If I don´t change the brake hose, the local car inspection authority won´t let me drive anymore with it (I have time until March 23´d) And this is my daily driver...I drive it to work everyday 20 miles forth and back,no matter what the weather is, and here in Finland it can get down to minus 30 celsius (don´t know how much that is in Farenheit). Thanks in advance. |

try someone like "Fine Lines" or Classic Tube. They make them pre bent to fit. |

'Volaredon' - It takes too long time to order the brake line from such a company and get it to the other side of the world in one week. So when no-one seems to know the length of the line, I hope that I will get the information from 'Inline Tube'. |
