Yep fitted some to my old axgt, fitting /bleeding is the same as fitting standard rubber hoses... wait till u fitted them the difference is pretty noticeable ! much more positive pedal.

Make sure you give the connections a good spraying of WD40 or something similar. The nuts tend to be tight and you don#t wanna shear them. Check your spanner size and take it easy.

Apart from that is a straight swap.

After fitting I also smeared them in grease and wrapped them up in black flexi plastic (kinda like cable tidy material), just to protect them even more. Front and Rear.
