i'm used to seeing brake pipes attached to the chassis using the black clamps on the far right below.
on series iii's, i've seen the double white clips used to run the brake pipes high on the bulkhead (almost hidden from view).
and on at least one restoration, i've seen the single white clips used to lift the brake pipes off of the chassis, presumably to reduce the risk of chaffing against the steel chassis.
so, two questions:
1.) do most people use the black clamps alone, everywhere? (that's how my truck was originally, and is that fine). The parts manual only shows the use of these clamps.
2.) if the plastic clips are used, and presumably they are since Rovers made them, how the heck are they attached to the truck? i figured it's just a friction fit or there is a female grommet that goes with these and clips from the other side. none of the holes on my bulkhead, save one, provide a snug fit to these plastic clips.
danke.
