My unions won't but up.. anyone close to MK with some

Im desperat need of some m10x1 long unions like this

http://www.nfauto.co.uk/brake_flaring_tool.htm

mine are the brass ones and shorter. i have the 4way unit form car builders but when i flare the end and put it in the union is to short to lock the pipe up (if that makes sence) which is odd coz the rear 3way was fine with the shorter fittings.

anyone got any close to Milton keynes, i was hopein to get this done this weekend.

Thanks guys





Why didn't i just make it simple!

You can cut the brass union arms shorter.

Easy fix.

Otherwise, most motor factors will have longer unions.

Sounds like your flares aren't big enough, the end of the pipe should stand very slightly proud of the die you flare it.
