Hello
Anybody know where I can get the solid pipe that goes into the clutch slave cylinder
Alternatively do we know the spec of the pipe so I can find someone to make one please.
Many thanks,
Mike.

I have now noticed that Brickwerks supply a plastic pipe. Anyone know if this plastic pipe from the later vans, is suitable to use in place of both the metal and rubber pipe on my early van. My metal line has corroded and broken.

There was a long thread on this a good while ago.
I;ll see if it got into the Wiki or if I can find it in the archives

The plastic pipe can be fitted and also does away with the flexible hose but you will need the banjo bolt and sealing washers as well. The mating face on the slave cylinder will also need cleaning up.
Or direct replacement is 6mm (1/4 in) pipe with M12x 1.0mm unions.

Thanks HM
I think from reading that I can replace solid and flexi with the plastic pipe.
