Hi all. I have been browsing the forum for a few weeks before purchasing a 1.4 T-Jet 3 door in Black. I noticed the rear discs were a bit pitted from possibly the pads being seized in, also the handbrake wasn't working very well. So off with the wheels and calipers/pads cleaned and regreased and now working fine. When i had the wheels off i noticed that the mounts for the hydraulic pipe to the caliper where they attach to the axle have detached on both sides so not supported. Has anyone had this problem? Also the metal part that is welded to the rear axle where the handbrake clips into is corroded quite badly that it is no longer keeping it secure. This bit is part of the rear beam so can't see how this could be repaired. Any help would be good. I have attached a pic of the hydraulic pipe mount.

Any help would be great, thanks. 20171027_200727.jpeg
