Recommended Posts

I'm just fitting my goodridge braided hoses and the rear ones look wrong and far too tight have i fitted the bracket wrong? or are hoses wrong?.

Bracket looks right but can't say about the Goodridge hose length. Here are a couple pics of mine. My hoses are from Matt Lewis Racing and the last caliper hose seems to be a tad longer...

Looks like your pipe is slightly twisted and also the bracket could be tweeked over so its more upright. Personally i don't bother with the caliper flexys I just run copper straight to the caliper as per the 306 etc.

spoken to goodridge so see what they come back with think main problem is it has a hard plastic pipe over it so may have to cut that off as its stopping it flexing

I do as james mentioned, all the psa stuff from about 94 on were done like it.

Is that a copper sealing washer on the caliper end?

The pipe end should come in contact with it's mating face to make the join, like oil cooler fittings etc

goodridge have admitted that the pipes have been made too short and are making me some more.
