Front Brake Spliter

[badger]

Can someone enlighten me please, gs1000g 1983.
After stripdown, what order do you connect up the front brake spliter, Looking from the front is it. front left caliper hose/ m,cylinder hose/ right caliper?
I cannot remember nor find my manual.

Thanks in advance

I believe the master cylinder line comes down to the inside of the right side of the block.

I makes sense to me to have it not cross over the center.

Thanks Steve.
Yes i have connected up that way, but proving so hard to bleed, as i can only get fluid to the furthest caliper from m/cylinder. So it put doubt in my mind?

The splitter has little tangs on it that dictate the position of the banjos.

From left to right, looking at it from the front towards the back its:

Hose from MC
Splitter.
Hose to the caliper on your left (brake lever side)
Hose to the caliper on your right (gear lever side)

The diagram here shows it nicely:

Dimes to donuts it doesn't matter as long as the crush washers are installed between all lines and splitter.

It's only a connector block, not a valve....

Line blocked for one caliper? Put an Ezi bleed or vacuum tool (or suck very strongly) on the side that it won't flow through.

Yeah, it makes no sense since the splitter just divides the fluid between the two lines.
