Then I worked onto getting the middle retainer clip onto the strut body, there's not much into these, they just turn side on to go on, then they sit there.

Now for the bottom of the line, the callipers have an odd bolt, like a glan bolt, I know they have a special name cause Colin was chasing one before and told me what they were called.

The new braided line kit comes with new washers, seeing as the old ones are the original it was decided that the best option was to use the new ones provided... which is most of the time the best option.

While I was playing with the callipers I figured it was a good time to check the brake pads, these are just over 1/2 way gone, I was thinking of replacing these and dare say will have some decent pads to put in there before then end of the week.

So after everything was done up this is the finished resault. Fingers crossed it has some sort of improvement over what it had, should be able to stop on a 5 cent coin after all this buggering around!

Any Question, comments shoot... open slather :P

You didnt mention the correct method of bleeding he brakes after carrying out all the above-mentioned work.

Come to think of it I dont think you put brake fluid in there either!!

Very observant mate ;)

I need to buy some new fluid, hence why that didn't get done, plus I need some one to give me a hand with it.

That will be in the next 10,000 photos..lmao
