| Didn’t take a picture, I can grab one tomorrow. This problem is not new, has been discussed here before… without better solutions though! For instance here: https://www.defender2.net/forum/post167 ... |

Fair enough, I see.
Well I started from the position that it's impossible to put in new brake pipes without dismantling much of the engine bay. Using segments occurred to me but that does seem lik ... |

| So did you make your own hoses with these unions? Do you have links for the parts you used? |

I've now had a reply from Furore. Two points:
1. The 10mm union should fit just fine in places where the pipe flange in the photo was previously used. Apparently this is a "dual seated" u ... |

there are different flares on brake pipes.
No question! However, in various videos I saw about brake pipes on Land Rovers, I never saw a flange that was not like mine. Never saw different size un ... |

The middle one has totally different end - it has opposite cone. For sealing is the inner part, not the outer cone part.

| Alright, that’s sorted now - I held the hub in a vice and whacked the brake disc quite a while with a lump hammer before it came off, but eventually it did. Thanks everybody for confirming I wasn’ ... |

I don’t think the disc is thin enough for that. I’m replacing it because it has disintegrated in a strange way, perhaps because the pad was gone.
