Brake pipe clips

I need to change the pipes under the Jimny this year.

I have the pipe, and am resigned to dropping the tank for access, and to do the 3 fuel pipes.

All the pipes are held so neatly with some plastic combs.

What holds them on?

The manual gives a tightening torque that could only be fo a steel bolt, but I cant see a bolt anywhere.

It looks as though they might pop over a shaped bolt. Without breaking one I can't tell.








I'm going to need new ones, as they are bound to break when I try and take the pipes out, anyone know the part numbers? (and a likely price: if they are £20 each I'll cut the pipes into 6" pieces and leave them on the car

There seem to be 2 tall ones and 4 short ones, for a total of 7 in the manual, so there must be 1 I can't see somewhere.

I think they pop over a stud like you say.

I'm thinking that, and I might make up something to pop them off.

The pipes push in from the back, and the clip springs out over them, so they wont come out.

Easiest would be to buy a new set.

I called into the local suzuki dealers, to be told they don't have a parts department any more :huh:

The nearest is about 40 minutes away, they do have a phone, but trying to order a part that you don't know what it is without seeing the screen is rather difficult.

A friend removed his old pipes in sections by cutting and pulling them through. The new one was made and then clipped in. warm the old clips with a hair dryer to make them less brittle.
