Basically just a clamp mate , I used a wee G-Clamp.

b) point 11 says "Make sure you use new washers on either side of the union" what are these washers and where do i get them through?

Vauxhall very cheap

c) my caliper has the "tube" cut off as shown in this pic http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/3267/dsc00664.jpg but ed's appears to have some sort of collar thingy on the end


Ed has taken his brakes off the donor car with the pipe still attatched , but you will just take off whats left on yours , and bolt on the standard pipe already on your car

If you need any advice u2u mate as I was looking for help on this too when I was doing it.

Also buy buy buy a gunsons brake bleed kit , excellent piece of kit
