Hi all
New to the site so apologies if any thing in my post needs clarification
I have a 2009 lwb transit connect that has failed the mot for both off and near side rusting brake pipes, the front to back ones that goes over the petrol tank joins in the middle of the car then proceeds to the front and disappears under the front subframe into a junction on the bulk head
Hope some one on the forum has changed them and can help with some advise
some questions are as follows
1. Do i need to remove / drop the tank or can i re route the pipe
2. If i can re route what is the best route and how and where do i clip it to the body work
3. do i have to take the front section of pipe right up to union on the bulkhead or will it be ok to put a joint in the pipe before it disappears under the front subframe (pipe still in fair condition there)
4.if I cant joint what do I need to remove to get onto the front of the pipe as it looks a nightmare to get at
Hope some one can help
Mark
