Connecting remote reservoir?
How have people connected the remote reservoir to the brake M/C's? I was expecting to be able to ring up Rally Design and order some unions
that I could push a rubber pipe onto and secure with a juberlie clip, but the guy started talking about banjo's 
What have others done?
Cheers

The master cylinders have the same thread as clutch pipe so I used two short lengths of that to join flexible rubber pipe to the cylinders which then
push fitted to the reservoir. The tip I was given by someone on here was to make sure the BS number was clearly marked on the pipe as the SVA man can
get a little tetchy if it cannot be identified as 'proper' stuff for brake fluid (ie not any old fuel line).
Hope that makes sense. Can take a photo if it would help!

Brake-fluid proof lines
Hello
If you're still trying to get a reliable answer to this problem you could try contacting parts-for-older-cars. They're in Mansfield (a
few miles from me) and have been extremely helpful. I'm sure they'd know the solution and may well be able to sort you out with the
hosing you need.

Could you let us know what the answer is as I'm not far from this problem myself.

Brake Pipe
Hi guys.
You must use HYDRAULIC hose for the brake inlet.
This can be obtained from most hyd repair companies i.e. Purtek hose and assemblies.
The hose must not have fuel hose on it; a SAE number is what you are looking for.
The fittings can be done as Chris has mentioned, you can also purchase the fittings from us. They are £5 + VAT each.
I trust this has helped.
Regards The Luego Team.

Hi Luego,
The fittings that you say are available from you, do they simply screw into the M/C's and you simply push on the hydraulic pipe?
Thats just what I've been after 
I've also got a sugestion for you re the pedal box. I was told that the Gold pedal box was ready to bolt in, but beacause I didn't get
these unions it isn't  I'm not saying that you have to include them, but if someone had told me when I ordered I would have got them
then.
