Brake line help
Hi guys,
Been working on the brakes recently and found something interesting...
Just wanted to check whether this is right or not?
Basically i have a tandem master cylinder, one outlet for front brakes, one outlet for rear.
The fronts goes through a T piece and then a pipe to each caliper.
The rear pipe seems to go to the offside drum, and then where i'd expect to see a bleed nipple, i instead have another line come from that point
and into the nearside drum which then has it's own bleed nipple.
So it looks like this:
Is that setup ok or should i have a t piece like the front and a line into each drum?
Regards,
Andy

Norm but only on Fords most manufacturers use a T piece in the rear barakes.
