Normally I would say wire brush, check then grease them up, but that actually looks quite bad.

Is it worth the risk? Serious and imminent failure!


You can say 'Specsavers' all you want but they do look very bad

As with the brake pipes themselves; you may have come to a conclusion rather too soon! Wink

Just do it, small effort and not worth the risk IMO.

Four pipes and fluid from AF, 2 male 3/16" unions and http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hand-Held-Brake-...2749.l2649 off the bay then a couple of hours......

blimey they don’t look very good

couldn’t agree more with the other guys in getting them changed immediately , know in the mean time i wouldn’t use it , as i wouldn’t like to think of the dire consequences

don’t like the game of russian roulette

BUT DON'T SPEND £1150 on it.

When he gets a quote that is rather more reasonable than £1150.
In the meantime he could drive around a hired new FFRR and still be quids in!
