Shouldn't be too difficult to flare the existing pipe. Cut back to a painted part of the pipe and you should be fine. Past: FL2 TD4 HSE Auto

Getting the plastic coating off without cutting into the pipe is a sod to do |

Is it bad enough to need replaced? Rub it down with emery paper and paint or cover in grease? Landrover - turning owners into mechanics since 1948 2014 Orkney grey Freelander SD4 GS. 2004 Zambezi silver Discovery 2 Td5 (Gone) 1963 Surf blue Morris Mini Minor Super de Luxe (my little toy) |

So after trying to get the coating off without damaging the pipe I eventually bit the bullet and changed the whole pipe back to the diff joint. Not sure I like this plastic coated pipe, it hides the corrosion and is a real pain to try and flare! |
