309 brakes

VROOM · Unread post by **VROOM** » 04 Sep 2005, 02:11

Can anyone tell me if the rear brake flexible hoses on a 309 are standard across the range - or is there different makes of brakes used? If they are a standard fit, are they reasonably easy to replace or are there things I need to be aware of? It is a 1991 (J) 1392cc model.

Years back had a 309 diesel H/B and had access to a 309 van diesel. Both had new brakes fitted on the back. Memory says both were the same shoes. So don't see why they arn't the same hoses.

Hmmm, we have a question here, are they - or are they not? Any other opinions?

Flexis are the same across the range , even disk to drum. Changing them is relatively simple until you find the one that is seized and corroded!! Mole grips are essential.
