Banjo bolt lock plates
« on: May 20, 2019, 03:12:37 PM »
Hi
Are these still used?
My car doesn't have any fitted and it I'm guessing the brake hoses are original - which makes me think it left the factory without any.
I'm replacing the hoses now as they're perishing.
There's no mention of them in the Haynes manual.
Thanks
John

I would fit braided hoses

If the purpose of these is to stop the banjo bolt coming loose, then wouldn't these still be needed with braided hoses?
