Changing rear brake pipes October 10, 2022, 01:32:11 PM Hi,Anyone got some good advice on changing the rear brake pipes that go to the rear wheel cylinders. The LHS one looks like a right arse to get to because the bracket for the brake compensator gets in the way of the brake pipe spanner. Very little space to work with at all. Cheers K
