Thread: source for preformed brake hard lines?

  1. #1

    source for preformed brake hard lines?

    I coyld not find a left side hard line that wraps around the back of torsion tube to the banana arm, seems that only the right side is avail. other option ae the ones Stoddard has and you need to form them as they are strait.
    anyone have a source?

    It takes about five minutes to bend the line. You use a brake line bender or brake line pliers, it's easy.

    Eric @ PMB is selling hard lines now. They are on his web site. http://www.pmbperformance.com/911-brake-lines.html

    I think the part you are referring to is labelled 32.

    thanks a bunch Andy, btw no 32 looks as if its in 2 parts with 28 as a coupler but the no 28 coupler is not listed and I wonder what its made of? rubber tubing? either way the whole trans brace has to come out for accessing the removal and reinstalling.
    should this really be in 2 pieces and would a rubber hose as a coupler be enough to carry the pressure of the lines?

    That is a piece of rubber tubing slit lengthwise that goes over the hose to keep it from chafing against the tab that holds it there. LOL no a rubber coupler cannot withstand 1000-2000 psi hydraulic pressure. At least more than once

    It's not a sleeve, those are the rubber protectors that go over the steel line where ever it is retained by the metal tabs.

    Well DUH! (pounds his head firmly with his palm) that was a lapse in conscientiousness if there ever was one! my apologies for old age, should have been obvious to a guy like me I started out as a hydraulique mechanicien apprentice at Canadair ( now Bombadier I just heard) and witnessed hydrolic pressure up close during the design and experimental stages of the Challenger Jet.

    That's why older men are bald, it's not age related, it's how many times we have realized we just did something stupid
