Looks a great job restoring it all. I dread to think what it's cost. With the banjo fitting, do you think it's going to be liquid tight at the mating surface?some may notice that I did a modification on the brake pipes….the originals were quite corroded, and they are a weird one piece pipe with the flexi part of it, not sure if they are available, and no doubt expensive? I decided to buy 2 extra flexis to keep it simple, and then buy banjo adapters to join the caliper to the flexi. Doing it this way keeps it cheap, simple and a bit more future proof hopefully. The banjo fitting is round and deeper than the original, so I had to file the sides slightly to fit the caliper, and longer banjo bolts are on the way.
close to 350! However, once done, it’s done, and I shouldn’t have to look at it again for a few years hopefully. It has new shocks and springs last year……the previous owners paid for the new springs to be fitted and the cost at the garage was more than the whole of this rebuild cost. Thats how I justify stuff
. The banjo sealing area shone fine, I’ve taken a tiny bit off to flatten the sides. On hydraulic machinery these things will run over 3000psi, so fingers crossed
I realised after asking that it was the sides of the fitting that had been squared down rather than the mating face. daft question lol
