    PMB - still in business??

    No response to the voicemail I left on Thursday after being on hold for a while. I tried the email option yesterday and no reply to that either. So, checking to see if someone can confirm all is still in order there, or time to find another supplier. Thank you.

    They're still in business but they can be very hard to get a hold of. Been that way for as long as I've been using them. Keep trying.

    I admit that the 'very hard to get a hold of' thing is not something I'm fond of...never understand that type of business model...just sayin.

    I have used Goldline Brakes in Washington when PMB is backed up, goldlinebrakes.com
    was very happy with their service.

    Thanks Mike - my immediate need is for a brake line set for my 72....I see that PELICAN and STODDARD carry these, but I don't see that either carries the stainless set that PMD did. I'll check out Goldline as you suggest.

    I've talked to PMB a few times recently. No issues. I think only one time did I leave a message, the rest they answered. Keep trying...

    I forgot about Goldline. I used them for a set of 944 calipers years ago and they did a great job.

    Do they do yellow zinc? Mike, did you use them for 911 calipers?

    Used them for my rear calipers on my 914-6 when Eric was swamped, yes they do yellow zinc. He is also a 1 man show and works out of his house, so he can get backed up also, but it is nice to have a second source.
