fitting ranie brakes to a 90

got some rr axles of an lse that i want to fit to my 90, thing im not sure of is how do i do the plumbing? the rear rr axle has twin flexi pipes as opposed to my single one so i presume i just fit a different t-peice??
but im really stumped by the front axle as each caliper has two lines going into it, ive read somewhere the possibility of blanking one off but hows that going to work? any advice much appreciated mike

Haven't done this myself, but I believe a common way to do it is to create a T piece using a tee, some pipe and a couple of fittings to feed the two inlets from a single pipe.

You put a t on the back of the caliper.

If I were you I'd save myself the work and fit the callipers from your old axles. They are the same basic casting, just machined differently to make them twin circuit on the RRC. Some Defenders had bigger callipers but used the same disks.
Later RRC, Disco etc had vented disks. Still the same calliper casting with a spacer inn the middle.
