Q.Re Brake line compatability

[nico]

Hi all.

Bought some Goodrigde stainless steel ones online a while back.

Spec is simply for Bravo 95 on.
Fiat Dealer mechanic tried a rear one on my MkII hgt, and said wouldn't fit!!?? He didn't even try a front one. Goodridge duno why it won't fit,

Is there any difference in the connections between models??

Check the parts catalogue. In what way 'wouldn't' it fit?

The rear brake hoses are longer on a HGT than they are on the other Bravo's, due to the HGT having Disc Brakes. If the packet said for Bravo - 95, then they wont fit as the HGT wasn't released till around 1997.

The front ones should fit though.

The solid hoses along the suspension arm are different, I belive the flexies are the same as I don't think you need to change them when you disc convert a normal bravo/a.

Meant to ring the garage today to ask mechanic what difficulty was.

If it's just length, then shouldn't struggle to get them to swop them then!

The one they tried to fit (on the rear) was one of the shorter pair, bout 18cm between fittments.

Any idea what length they should be??
