Brackets for braided brake hose join?

Hello GTS builders

Can you tell me if the Panther chassis has brackets welded to act as the 'bulkhead-type' join between solid and flexible brake hoses?

I do not believe so. They are available from GTS in the brake kit and are riveted to the chassis.

I ended up going up to B and Q, getting an ally bar, cutting it down, rounding it off, drilling a few holes and voila.

Not as elegant as laser cut brackets but you never really see them anyway.

very true - My MK was fitted with them in the same way that you have - it just strikes me as something that is an easy addition for the chassis builder to fit??
