Xantia front suspension supply pipe lengths

Post by c.morewood »

Can anyone tell me the length of the 2 front supply suspension pipes 5270 PR and PP? They're both NFP and Service Citroen doesn't show the lengths

I doubt it's recorded anywhere so you might need to run string along the length of the pipes on order to get the measurement, but having said that one place worth trying is Pleiades as they specialise in Citroen hydraulics and will more than likely make up the pipe for you.

NFP
HYDRAULIC TUBE
DIAM 6,35 L=1102

96 112 362
NFP
HYDRAULIC TUBE
DIAM 3,5 L=1062

and MK1 without hyperactive and with anti sink, there are two options for each aside rp No. dependent, here is just the one ( for each side ) that is still showing as available

5270 96

Thanks Malcolm,
I was only after a rough length ..I doubt I can copy the more intricate routes the original pipe follows.. I thought it might be worth asking as someone on here might know if they're a different length to the Mk1.
DickieG, I need to use Eurocarcare to make them up as they're the only ones, having already asked Pleiades amd M Lockwood, that will combine the C5 suspension upper ends and pipe with the Xantia lower ends.
Thanks for the info,
Chris
