4 pot conversion hoses

[LeeBee]

Has anyone here had any experience fitting these?, the first picture shows the banjo bolt that goes on the small link hose, the thread on this is too long and bottoms out on the caliper before sealing (both holes in the caliper are the same depth)



The next picture shows the main hose banjo bolt which fits fine but looks a little on the short size for my liking (ok not the end of the world as the copper washers do the sealing)



And the next picture shows the hose in place, does look this correct?



I can cut the thread back easily enough but considering how many of these they must sell it would have been nice if someone could have changed the design

Nag over

Very Nice!!! Is that all new stuff or recon? Must have taken bloody ages, looks worth it though

Thanks!, most of it is recon with some new parts (bearings bushes group A tie bars etc), yes it has taken a long time but it (the subframe) will be finished soon, just waiting for the driveshafts to be plated then it's onto the rest of the car

Sausauge, the only other thing you need is the metro vented drive flange (the bit with the wheel studs in).

You will probably need to machine these as they have wheel locating lugs that foul on most Mini wheels.If when you get some you can get them to me I will machine them off for you

You will also need some early Metro swivel joints (GSJ 268).I have 4 brand new ones that I need to take back to the Rover dealer for a refund (I ordered some but my dad picked some up for me to, my fault I did ask him to do this and forgot to tell him!).They were about £9 each but if you want them they are yours for £25 for 4
