DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT SIZE THE BRAKE PIPE IS THAT RUNS FROM THE FRONT TO THE BACK OF THE CAR???? (MASTER CYLINDER TO FLEXI HOSE ON BACK AXLE)
THE REAR AXLE IS 3/16" BUT THIS PIPE SEEMS TO BE OF A LARGER DIAMETER ,AND SEEING AS IT RECENTLY SHEARED OFF WHEN I REMOVED THE FLEXI PIPE IT NEEDS REPLACING WITH COPPER BUT AM NOT SURE WHAT SIZE IT IS
HELP

i have the first gen and no experience with third gen but there are only a few common brake line sizes. I am pretty sure it will be 1/4".

Hi sorry i have left it so long to reply but im doing some renovation work at home and my car has ten ton of gear stacked all around it ,so i jacked up the rsend to check brake pipe size for you it is 1/4 i first check of the master cylinder also 1/4 .My 3rd gen is a 89 but its a v6 with drums out back i woulndt think this would make much difference but not sure ,Cheers Neil P.S. if allready sorted lets know the outcome

Hi hope the above info was of any use if not let us know what size your brake pipes are Cheers Neil

cheers mate(s) when i finally got the pipe off and took it into my local motor factors it was indeed 1/4",
had to re-use the master cylinder connector as they did'nt have one that big but it was servicable and the rear end connector was of a smaller size and they had that in stock,all in all it only cost £8.00 which i thought was very reasonable as it was over 12 foot long,so thanks for your help
