Fiesta rear brake pipes
Son's R reg Fiesta has just failed its MOT on rear suspension turrets corroded and rear brake pipes corroded.
Anyone done either of these jobs before?
Any major issues to look out for - last time I stuck my head underneath looked as the pipes were buried under the floor?
TIA.
Cheers, Pewe

done the N/S brake pipe on my lads R reg a couple of months ago it's a bit of a fiddle round the tank and fuel filter but not to bad theres a
join just by the tunnel. Although when I did my mums I joined it nearer the back. Very common fault as the pipe sits on a pad that stays wet.

^^ ours is the same poo design, but at least you can see it.. Cu/Ni replacement this time so it will not rust again..
Not sure about the turrets looks more of an issue...
