Simon,
The brake pipe on the LH side of the chassis carries on along the side of
the chassis, under the axle, doing an S bend around the damper/body mount
tower, then comes up vertically in line with the three way connector, and
then does another right angle into the nearest outlet of the connector. The
top exit of the connector goes to the LH flexible hose, and the other one
straight across the back of the chassis to the RH flexible hose.
Have fun! I have found in the past that the pipe from front to rear of the
car has been made a couple of inches longer than necessary.
Regards
