Im using sierra rear calipers, do i need to run a flexi to the caliper as its a sliding type or is copper line ok.

Or have i got it mounted wrong as the bit that the male fitting screws into floats back and forth.

Cheers

Pretty sure you will need a flexible pipe for the reasons you mention - got mine set up like that anyway.

You need to run a flexi to your rear calipers. Copper would restrict the movement.

Unless the rear caliper will not move in relation to your chassis you'll need a flexi pipe. otherwise a copper one will break.

hmmm,

much as i suspected, thats something else i need to buy now!

Any idea how long a set of sierra ones are?

Any piccies of your back end set ups!???

My back brake flexies are over 8 feet long !! ..... but I've got them going back to the reservoir in one length

and i thought you were building something 16 foot wide!
