thanks for that I'll get it done and report back in a couple of weeks, hopefully with a lovely smooth ride
well not that easy one side the banjo fitting looks like its wielded its self on, and on the other side the smaller pipe the nut is rounding off, so give it one more try and if not it'll be a trip to a garage im afraid

You need some propane torch heat get them off.
Careful where it's aimed...

And a whole heap of penetrating oil (not WD40 - more like "plusgas" or "Duck Oil").

I was going to heat it up, but heated a bit of the fluid in a tray and its flammable, so I thought not ended up taking it to a garage cost £250 but its sorted now
