I'm sticking the brake system back on the car now after its refurb and replumbing and have a couple of queries.
1. I ran the handbrake cables through the centre of the rear beam and they come out through the hollow near the brake calipers. Now I have put new brake pipes mounted onto the rear axle I notice that the clips have an extra 'space' on them that looks about the diameter of the handbrake cable. Should the cables run through inside the hollow of the beam or are they mounted on top of the beam and held in place by these clips?
2. Putting the servo back on I notice that there are two sets of nuts on the two studs that come out of the servo bowl and into the master cylinder. I can't remember why it would need two pairs of nuts - presumably the inner ones hold the master cylinder to the servo and the outer ones hold something else to the master cylinder?
Any reminders as to what went where gratefully accepted!
