Manual Conversion Thread - RS6 with 01E

[sempaipaul]

I had the same issue with the rubber caps. After the first set started leaking, I decided to braze some copper caps on instead. It has now been several years (five?) and a lot of miles, and they’re still holding up great. Aluminum caps would probably be better since the lines are aluminum, but copper ones were more readily available.

Did you have to take both pipes out to do that?

any chance you could snap and share some pics?

I had both pipes out, yes. It was done during the manual conversion. I don’t have any photos, but I’ll see if I can get some.
