Citroen xm 1998 saloon rear cylinder pipes with hydroactive suspension.

Good evening everyone,
Does anyone know the part numbers for the 2 rear hydraulic pipes to the cylinders for a 1998 saloon with hydroactive suspension. Mine have rusted through.

Those rear suspension pipes are quite hard to find and sadly no one is remanufacturing them. I’m nit 100%, but I think pipes for your car are 5270K3 for the left and 5270J3 for the right one. When searching those they are sometimes listed in different ways like 5270 J3, 5270.J3 etc.

A local hydraulics specialist should be able to make up some new pipes. Take all the pieces you have so they can make the correct flares.

Good evening guys, thanks for your help. I've got the lefthand pipe from Chevonics and I might have found the right one from a breakers in France. I will also see about the price of getting some made from a hydraulic specialist. Once again thanks.
