It has taken a while and when I ordered my new wheel cylinders the part numbers does not match the catalogue number so I am not sure which one is left and which one belongs on the right?
If I knew which way the Flex hose connection should face front or back this would tell left and right??
So if any of you could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.
Thanks | | |

If that doesn't solve the problem, just take a look at the length of the flex line, and install the cylinders so there's a maximum amount of movement without kinking the line in a sharp turn.
