Post Brake pipe union
Hi, my brake pipe union is missing :roll:
Image
The rear axle has two pipes coming out from it but how do they attach to the splitter?

the union is a very expensive part jack, it has a bolt to secure it in place, the pipes need threaded male ferrules aNd the tip of the brake pipe has to be flared with a special tool(ebay)- my brothers 3 wheel special has all new brake pipes we installed all of them
try getting one from someone who is breaking a car
btw your pic shows a splitter with plugs installed to keep any dust out

The union was probably cut off, then... add a pair of pipes to your order!

Removing the tank won't make much difference on an Acadiane... ;)
