Braided Brake Lines - TD5 and Puma Differences
I'm due to change the brake fluid soon and whilst I have to bleed them, thinking of changing the flexible brake lines for stainless braided versions.

Whilst looking around at different brands, I noticed that Extreme 4x4 list 2 different versions dependent on whether it's a Puma or pre-puma version. Did LR change the union sizes or is there another difference?

Thanks, Harry

Thanks for the quick response Dorsetsmith. I don't have ABS or the dual circuit front calipers so looking at the 3-hose kit. Is it safe to assume that Td5 and Puma hoses are not interchangeable? 2005 Td5 110 Hardtop

As above speak to David at llama, he's head done all my brake pipes for my own vehicles and rebuilds for last 12 years. Consider banjo fittings straight to caliper Cheers

Thank you guys, I'll give Dave a call. Banjo fittings direct to the calipers is a good suggestion, much easier to take the calipers off for maintenance later on. Thanks, Harry 2005 Td5 110 Hardtop
