#30192, "2Piston Brake Hose Help(Pic)"
Mar-14-07 09:21 AM by shiftdrift06

          

Hey, Well I a set of DualPiston Calipers from a Diamante and having trouble getting brake hose for it.

These Calipers are SCREW IN type lines and my 2g as you know, are BANJO.

I had went to Oreilly's and bought new brake Hose for a Diamante, thinking that it would bolt on to my main aluminum brake line, but this one is WAY to short. Am I missing something? Should I get something else? Heres a picture.

call RRE and get a braided set with screw in fittings for a 2g. 85.00 and they give you all 4.

unless you kept the old lines from the diamante that had the "U" shaped hardline and mounting bracket, you will need to do what Terry said.

Any more suggestions would be great.

yeah, you guys are right. I check out RRE and look it over. Kinda had a hard time contacting them though lol. Lets see, while I am here, maybe you guys can answer my question.

Whats the difference from 4 and 8lines kit?

Could I buy a 3000gt or 1g SS line kit off umm, lets say ebay and would that work?

the 8 line kit (and ebay kits) will put you in the same predicament you are in now
8-lines are designed for 1g awd an 3kgt that have a small bracket and hardline in the middle of two lines and bolts to the suspension

the 4 line kit is 2 for the front and 2 for the rear

HOWEVER you need the "adapter lines" and those you have to call and ask specifically for
