W126 Brake Caliper Hose Question
OK guys, I did a search but to no avail. I'm finishing up my FE rebuild and am installing the rebuilt calipers and new hoses. There is a plug in the hole for the brake hose and it has two copper washers. The question is...
do I need to use these two washers or one or none? I don't recall these washers on the old calipers but then it's been quite a while. I checked the repair CD and there is no caliper drawing cross section. TIA

OK, never mind, I figured it out. Both washers are required.

Good thing you figured it out Warren....'cause can't remember.
BTW: I'm working about a block from the Soo Locks right now. But I've been office bought so I don't get to see the traffic.

BTW, I got the car mostly back together I just need to add important things like the master cyl, brake pads and fluid. I just wanted that milestone before it got cold and really rainy which it did later in the day. I also have a ton of leaves in my gutters.
