Anyone ??

My caliper pipes have the round banjo connectors, bolts are in the pack as well

We have wrong front pipes then...

Most of the pipes were wrong on my Sportster kit too. I got my local garage to re-do the ends with the right fittings.

I had ordered that pipe flaring tool from frost.co.uk but found the results to be pretty rubbish.

It should be a straight fitting for the 'T' piece and banjo for the calliper.

There should be 6 pieces. Master cylinder to 'T' piece x2 (straight fittings) then front & rear brake callipers to 'T' piece x4 (straight & banjo).

One problem some people have is the master cylinder connection, as Rover use a couple of different sized fittings, depending on the year & model of donor car.

I have overcome this by adding a couple of short pipe lengths - male for master cylinder - female to connect to supplied pipe.

The way I got round it was to get another master cylinder from the scrappies.
