need brake pipe thread details

Hi folks,

just about to renew the rear axle mounts on the wifes 306. I need to
disconnect the brake pipe at each side (comes from the front of the
car and connects to the flexi hose feeding the pipe into the
cylinder).

I want to pick up a couple of short pipes to hammer flat so that I can
stick them on to avoid fluid loss. So, does anyone know the thread
type / size / etc for the flexi hose at the back ?

Cheers,

Craig

 

I wanted to do it without disconnecting the pipes, but I reckoned that
the distance I would need to lower the axle to get the front mounts
out would put alot of strain on the pipes. But if you've done it then
I will definitely consider this option!

Thanks,

Craig
