These have ben M10 x1.0 for quite a few years, you don't need to order them, any factor should have them for pennies

have you got the tool to put ends on?have you done them before,its better and similar money to get a decent factors or garage to make them up,just measure the length with 3 core wire and tell them the type of ends you need

Andy, Cut your pipes to length, and bring a front, and a back caliper, and master cylinder over to mine, and I will stick the ends on. If its sierra calipers, the threads are metric, and the Mastercylinders are imperial.

Or, a short bit of the old pipe and the unions, but calipers are best.

Its no bother, I have a decent Cam tool for this.


U got U2U as well.
