So I replaced my front brakes the other day (rotors, calipers, pads) and well, Im not sure sure, but I think I might have possibly, yknow... flipped the hoses on one of the calipers. As it is now, looking at the caliper straight on, the brake line coming in from the right is on the bottom, and the one coming from the left is on top.

If for whatever reason they might have been flipped, should I be worried? I couldnt seem to find anything in the service manual about it, then again, I wasnt exactly trying to find out. I just need to know if I have to go back in, because Ive been at it a while, and Im freaking out about it XP

 

if you turn the steering stop to stop, do the hoses bind in any position?

 

Nope! They seem to have plenty of room!

 

so what year/model car is this, with or without ABS, and which brake calibers does it have (for instance, my 1992 740 turbo wagon could have 3 different front brakes, Girling ABS, Girling no ABS, or DBA? but, this setup only has a single hose to each front brake).

 

1984 245 Girling, no ABS Girling has the pins go through the pads right?

 

hmmm, the girlings on tha tvintage 240 look to double pot, while the ATE are single pot.

the plumbing (brake pipes) drawing in the parts catalog, it looks like the forward fitting goes to the lower connect on the caliber, and the rear fitting goes to the upper connection on the caliber. those 2 hoses into the caliber have different PN's, and look to be different lengths. in fact the left and right side have different PN's on the pipes too (so there's 4 different parts?!?).
