Front and rear brake line replacement-Advice needed

Has anyone changed their flexi brake lines front or rear or both. My MOT is due and was noted last time they are corroded......da welcome to england........ but cant seem to find any reference or pictures on how tricky or simple it is on a FFRR. Rave is not clear on this either

Ive a TD6 with 106k on the clock, no leaks on the lines to date and the brakes are fine, did all the discs, pads and handbrake shoes about a year ago........

Any pictures or guidance would be welcomed........

Are you taklking about the rubber bits or the steel lines?

The flexi rubber bits should be fairly easy.

Wheel off. Swap out flexi pipe, and bleed the braking system. The brake lines will be a bit trickier, but i would guess that LR do shaped lines pre bent to the route. Alternatively you could go to a local garage and get them to make a line to fit. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Rear flexi is part rubber and part metal. Worth checking the metal pipe that runs across the rear from side to side as they are prone to rotting out rather quickly
