Brake pipe flare tool

[Martin Sadler]

Hi, does any one know where I can buy (at reasonable money), rent, or even borrow a tool to make 2cv brake pipe flares? I have spoken to Roy at Ecas who recommended Pleiades 01487.831239. However they no longer sell them.
Any ideas?

You can borrow mine martin if you want ,i have a bench mounted one so don't use the hand held one very often.

I'm a bit of a dunce when it comes to 2CV specific stuff, but won't this do? : http://www.abbeypowertools.co.uk/car-repair-tools/brake-repair-tools/[email protected]

Hi,
Thanks for the replys.

Sean would be interested if the price was right.

Paul, that would be grear - where are you?

Chris' Unfortunately no these kits cannot handle either the type and position of the flare or the bore of pipe. I did look into several of them and indeed have 2 kits including a very large Sykes kit that are no good.

Regards
Martin

Nope
one of these if you were really needy,  really rich or had a fleet of hydro-pneumatic motors to service

Citroen of that era had a peculiar "Pilot and Bore" arrangement
