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?

where did you get the pipe from Pleiades?
Sean
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/

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
