Brake line conversation

[danspann]

Good day all....I recently converted my front brakes on my 1996 300tdi(Turner engineering unit) discovery....however I have noticed that the calipers are for a dual brake line system whereas mine is a single line system. And as it is now only two of the four pistons in the caliper are opening.....is there any way to convert to a dual line system without changing the master cylinder....as all my brake components are new and I would prefer not to have to change them....thanks in advance

Tee peice

Tee peice

Is this the same t-piece that the rear brakes use?

As long as brakes are same size rotors( pistons ) and the brake hose has firm attachment mounting point.
A suitable tee peice for brakes that won't foul on lock should be fine
