Rubber brake hoses

Post by cushers » Wed Jul 25, 2018 6:35 pm

Hi
Anyone got any advice for sourcing replacement front brake hoses. The garage can fabricate the metal ones, it's the rubber ones that are elusive. Getting desperate now as trip fast approaching. Any other Mazda models work or anywhere that can make them up?

Any help very gratefully appreciated.

Seem to be plenty on ebay. You can use this to get the Blueprint part numbers and compare to your sizes:

Dimensions are given for some of them so you can compare with yours.

Thanks for the ideas. Unfortunately I am abroad and the garage needs them asap.

Can anyone possibly pass on the details that I could use to get them made up or check the pre fabricated ones.

They are for a 95 2.5 TD 2WD
Will try the suggested sites too. Thank you.
TIA

One of those is also listed for a Honda Prelude which may help your garage.

Don't know how close you are to civilisation but, if you can stand the cost, braided lines can be made to any size or fitting. There needs to be a 'speed shop' nearby like a Demon Tweeks equivalent:
