Local motor factors should have the cunnifer pipe and the ends (about 8p each). Make sure you get metric ones (although the pipe will be imperial). Last ones I bought, the muppet behind the counter insisted they were metric, although I questioned him because they didn't look right. Only confirmed they were imperial after I made up the first pipe and tried to fit it!oze30 wrote:i need a brake pipe flare tool ins't it? Where do I get the connectors from?

I've had the same trouble - walking back in because they've given me an imperial T-Piece & metric nuts......Brianmoooore wrote:Last ones I bought, the muppet behind the counter insisted they were metric, although I questioned him because they didn't look right.

Tee piece is usually reuseable. It's brass, so it doesn't corrode.oze30 wrote:I can get another t piece plus hard wire from a scrapper ( I think) or would i be better off getting it from stealer/gsf/ecp???
It's the only piece of the rear brake lines rhat I've never replaced.

So what is the correct process for bleeding brakes?
