Subject:      brake line question
Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed

Hi folks,

The question is - is there a difference in the brake line where it attaches to the caliper on the front right and left bend differently ? The line does not line up with my new caliper on the drivers side. Now I know this sounds like I got a wrong caliper however there is such a significant difference in the shape of that hook that it may be the line that's the problem even though it did at one time fit the old caliper. If in fact they are different then I know for a fact that the caliper is wrong and I can then wait and wait until another one is ordered. And if someone can tell me they are the same then I need to seek a new line end piece. Or does anyone have suggestions for bending it ? should I take the whole deal to a brake garage ? Hope someone can help . Thanks

Brian 87 Gl
