Folks,
some advice required.
I wanted to change over my brake hoses, for extended ones... 2" lift imminent.
And I picked up some of these Supertrux hoses a while back...
<Previously>
After having had one of the wheels off and looking at the brake hose fittings, it didn't look like it would fit... Was I missing something fundamental here...? Or am I just plain stupid... (probably).
I called Supertrux and, yes, they are the correct fittings for a 2nd Gen Surf. I even went upto see them and they looked in the wheel arch, looked at the fittings and, yes they were the right fittings.
</Previously>
Fast forward...
I did nothing else about it. Rummaging about in the shed for bits to see what i already had to service my Toy before our trip/jaunt to France... lo and behold those dreaded brake hoses... (2" lift not withstanding.) If I lift it (Toy), I ought to fit these hoses...
So, do I need anything else... because the knuckle end of the hose won't sit in the fork that holds the oringinal hose... Is it time to fabricate something... or am I missing something...?
Kind and gentle suggestions gratefully received.
