Default Brake pipe clamps

Evening team,

Got myself 4 new calipers to fit on the sapphire and wondering what your recommendations are for clamping the brake hoses.

Ive got braided hoses on all corners so wasn't sure which are best as dont won't to damage them.

Cheers

Good plan, braided hoses don't take kindly to pipe clamps.

Just depress the brake pedal slightly and have it locked there during works. Once the hole in the master is covered, chances of any amount of fluid leaking out is slim
You don't need to try and clamp any hoses.
