Braided Hoses

[magh]

I need to order my braided hoses but after reading on here about all the sets are too short I can't actually find a post pointing in the right direction that fits. I have a 2b running sierra gear. As I only want to order once and be correct thanks.

Russ Bost of Furore cars will make them any length you like

Think Automotive man.

 

That is go to Think Automotive http://www.thinkauto.com/acatalog/intro.html.

 

They sell the bits so you can make then to your own length. They will make then to any length you require.

 

These people supply most of the industry.

I use these guys, although I appreciate they're not local for you, they're cheaper than Think on braided brake lines (although I do use Think quite a lot) :-

Beauty of Nuneaton is they'll do swaged lines to any spec you give them. They're a bit iffy with reuseable fittings because of H&S implications, but they can get them if you want them (they stock a small selection).

 

Think are very good though, great customer service.

Yeah I've seen your post regarding these. Does anyone know the required lengths that will work?

I could measure mine later but being an Exmo I don't think they'd necessarily be relevant/accurate

I used the Ford Sierra Cosworth set from Rally Design.

This gives you the fronts, rears (to caliper) and small intermediary hose to go over the Sierra rear end tube to wishbone link.

 

The fronts are long enough to pass IVA, as are the rest of the kit.

as each car is slightly different so could be the lenghts of the hoses.

 

measure your own car and trip to the local hose maker. thats what i did
