Just to check, is this the correct brake line position.

Thanks 👍

Yes the picture is correct, primary circuit (Front brakes) closest to the servo and secondary circuit (Rear brakes) nearest to the front of the car, you would be surprised at the amount of cars out there that are the wrong way around.

Thanks for that. I've seen numerous pics of the wrong way round!

No problem Dave, couldn't find a definitive answer anywhere until I had a look in the dealer manual (Well worth getting a copy/s, they updated them over the years) Had my eyes opened at the Himley show earlier this year, looked at perhaps 8-10  cars with a servo fitted all in the show/competition area and at least half were piped up wrong in fact most of the cars that were right were the ones that still had the original factory items fitted it was about the same time or just after I remade all my brake pipes and added the servo to my 82 Mayfair.

 

I think a lot of confusion arises from the yellow tag master which is piped up the other way around, some say it doesn't matter, but I will always follow the factory spec with items that have a critical safety standard such as brakes and steering.
