- Fitting my rebuilt caliper but as usual there was a problem!
I wanted to use a modern braided hose but the banjo bolt provided in the repair kit was too long by almost 2mm as the new hose banjo was thinner then the original.
A little lathe work was required to get the banjo bolt to size.... which had it's own issues!
Note this is not a 'how to' video but just a how I did it video.
Always refer to your own workshop manual. - Авто та транспорт
I don't have a lathe so... fit extra cruch washer/washers, order a new, shorter banjo bolt
Yes, did look into a getting a shorter banjo bolt but these are 1mm pitch so choice is limited and I was unable to find one the exact length required, extra crush washers would have worked but not ideal.
I have found a lathe (even a cheap mini lathe) to be the best investment in the workshop I have made, so many uses.
