Braided Front Flexi's for M030?

[GPF]

Anyone have any braided front flexi's for m030 going spare? (so shorter than the standard flexi's)

I bought the rears some time ago from a forum member, so I only want the fronts but all the kits I have found seem to be for all 4 corners only.

Thanks.

Pirtek will make them, although they actually sub-out brake lines, theyre happy to make what you want.

Hi Graham,

HEL sell hoses in axle pairs, bought fronts only for mine

I will second HEL hoses. Great quality and the spinning unions are a stroke of genius. Great for getting the position of the pipes just so in addition to dealing with hard to shift brake unions . The unions tend to be stainless from them as well, which is a bonus. You can also get them in black, if you are after more of a stock look.

Thanks for the answers, Chaps.

I can't see that HEL do lines for M030 fronts - I've emailed them direct to check though so hopefully they will get back to me.

Maybe getting some made up locally will be the answer - does anyone know if the fittings are just standard female on both ends as opposed to 1x male and 1 x female on the standard (non M030) ones?

Thanks again

in answer to your question, for the M030 lines, its a female - female at each end. The hard line from the body has a male end with metric fitting that fits into it and is clipped in place.

At the strut end, the flexi has a female end from which there is an s shaped short hard pipe to the caliper. The female end of the flexi is held onto the strut via a fork/ clip type thing - identical to the ones used at the back for the rear flexis.

Hope this helps, if you need photos let me know ?

Yours

Chris

Hi Chris,

Thanks for that.

It's what I had concluded, but good to have confirmation.
