Hi guys, I hope someone can point me in the right direction. Just changed my leaking brake master cylinder, the next step for me was to use penetrating fluid over night on all four bleed nipples, in preparation for bleeding the brake system. The following day I managed to loosen up three, but on the rear left, the nipple snapped off. So I ordered up a new wheel cylinder, but you guessed it, I had the same issue with the brake line nut. The pipe had welded itself to the nut with I guess, dissimilar metal corrosion. No big surprise as the outside of the brake unit, wheel cylinder and pipe was totally covered in surface corrosion. Once I got the broken pipe removed from the cylinder and the flex line on the other end of the pipe, I realised both pipe retaining nuts have a slight conical shape to them. So I could not use spare pipework that I had laying around to replace the broken R4 units, as my spare pipework and nuts are parallel machined like any other normal nut.. Does anyone know of anyone selling pre-made pipes for the R4 or who sell just the conical flared nuts.
Any help much appreciated.
