I'm replacing my 109's complete brake hydraulic system and wondered if it's possible to get to the hard line fixing clamps with the body in place. Any comments or suggestions?

....don't quote me....but if I remember, on mine, all of the clamps are accessible along the frame ( for the rear line) from under the truck, through the seatbox area and in the engine bay.

Best bet would be to trace the entire system by hand before tearing into it and discovering there is one or two clamps completely impossible to get to. But then I guess if you're re-running everything you could always just cut the old lines out and route them so that they are easier to get to.
