I am looking for a bit of straightforward, simple advice here. I want/need to know which (if any) standard brake flexis will fit my car. I have a standard chassis size (i.e. book) and am using MK5 Cortina uprights and brakes.

I know there was a recent thread about this, but i am not really interested in making up 'one-off' flexis. Surely there must be a standard road car that has flexis of suitable length and design?

Any help appreciated.

Cheers.

I asked the exact question about a fortnight ago, lots of differing opinions, but I bought a capri set of euroquips for £18.50, they are premade and exactly perfect for what I am doing.

3 hoses, bulkhead fittings on all ends, nuts and washers included, all the right length, came next day, cheaper than fat rubbery ones.

Anything else you want to know?

Mark,

Can you tell me what length they are?

Regards,

David

David,

The fronts are 470mm and the rear is 280mm, measured between bulkhead faces

Hi,

If it's any help I'v just got some Goodridge hoses to fit Mk 3/5 Cortina.
They are 520mm total length with 22mm long M10x1 male thread both ends.

I've had a couple of U2U's asking for photo's of the flexies - how did they know I would have a picture!!

Is it because you are a sad git like me who has over 330 photo's of my car and associated bits and pieces?

330......!!!!!

Frigging amateurs...

I have 2000 plus...

Now that IS sad....

I am just over the 1000 now, brilliant for planning stuff or checking clearances when planning at home
