Snapped rear brake pipe! :(

Everything for the rear disc and pad change was going so well until I snapped the screw in brake pipe whilst trying to get the caliper back into the carrier.

Anyone know if this is full length or if it just screws into the caliper and connects to something else?

Thanks

Need to get this sorted asap. :cry:

It's snapped right on the start on the pipe so there's no way I can thread it from that side.

not clear pic can you send more?

How clear do you need?

That bit screws into the calliper, goes into a flexi line, and into the solid pipe that runs along the rear beam & then fastens into the next pipe that's fixed to the rear beam

off the top of my head anyway

Oh right, any idea if this is a big job or price roundabouts?

Thanks, thought I was going to have to go over the fuel tank! If that's where it leads lol.

Cheers

There is a connection just in front of the rear axle.

Pipe is about £25 iirc, been a while since I priced one up though.
