Jabiru Aircraft use flexible black nylon brake hoses. On most models they are connected to the
master cylinder via a tee-piece
– typically located in the main undercarriage channel under the belly
of the aircraft.

Repair is limited to replacement.
6.43 Wheel Brakes (all J-Series)
6.43.1 Description
The Wheel Brake Assemblies consist of a disc which is attached to the main wheel hub with through-
bolts and a floating brake caliper assembly.
Depending on model there may be 1 or 2 calipers fitted to each wheel.
Older aircraft use a slightly different caliper as shown in Figure 86. Maintenance, inspection & repair
of this system is the same as for later variants.
