QUOTE(bdstone914 @ Dec 14 2015, 07:46 AM)  1982 928 rear caliper flex line. Bought one at O Reily for about $20 and it was Ate brand. I would not use the grease gun hose. probably not made for the temp it will see in the engine bay. Awesome, thanks! I'll try that out. Edit: just checked and none of the locations in my area stock it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |

QUOTE(era vulgaris @ Dec 14 2015, 10:10 AM) Where is it on Tangerine's site? Maybe I'm blind, but I'm not finding it. Special order only for now, not going to be on the site this year at least. I do have some on the shelf. |

I just ordered a 928 rear brake line. We'll see how that does. If it fails too, then I'll get in touch with Chris.
I removed the old hose and inspected it. Looks like a grease gun hose. Oil is seeping up through the metal collars at each end. The hose itself appears deformed in a couple spots. I think these are definitely not ideal for the heat in an engine compartment, as others have mentioned. |

That's part of the reason I went and sprung for the braided option at AA. Plus you don't have to ground it separately, as Mark mentioned.

I use this, from a British vendor "LMA Performance"
 Might not be viable for those in the US after factoring in shipping cost . http://www.lmaautoparts.com/products/REMOTE_T-PIECE_KIT_M10/ |

You can use a Paint Ball gun braided hose.

What am I missing here, its a 10x1.0 BSP thread on the case and whatever the thread you need on the other end to match your sending units. Why all this talk about grease gun hose, paint ball hoses, etc. Call your local hose shop and have them make one up with the proper fittings.
These guys can probably direct you to a dealer in your area that could make the hose for you. http://www.brakequip.com/ If you can't find one I can supply them. You just need to let me know what fitting you need on the pressure sending unit end. |

Yes, stainless braided. 1/8"NPT both ends. The end fittings are AN-NPT adapters which can be changed to Metric. 23.95, delivered. |
