Flexy hose length

[flyerncle]

This has been asked before, so before I cut up some expensive hose what length are people using for the front hoses.

Cheers.

Thanks Ginger,two schools of thought Rob,bolted to the side panel or run through it with trim around fitted to a bracket on the chassis.

Hi
It all depends where you are attaching it on the chassiss I got the location on mine according to the book.With steering on full lock it was 460mm.

I bought 500mm long for the front & 450mm for the rear.

Thanks all for the input.

I thought the same thing until I fitted mine,

Mine are fitted as per book suggestion for the mounting bracket on the U1 & U2 & are routed thru the GRP side panel & thankfully they don,t go near the wishbone at all even when on full lock .

Mine are 450mm, but if I was to fit them again I would use 460mm length .

cheers

What are the lengths of the ones supplied in the Saturn brake kit out of curiosity?
