Custom brake hoses.

[Bentworker]

I have the front brakes off a SN95 Mustang Cobra on the front of my 71'.  The adapter kit was from Musrang Steve.  I was never happy with the brake hose options since the suggested method involved drilling some holes in the car and shortening steel lines.

I tried some 18" Russel braded hoses, but they were about 1/2" short and the next longer ones were 20".

So I called up Crown Performance and ordered up a couple custom hoses.

Got exactly what I wanted 18 1/2", 20 degree offset 10mm banjo on one end, 3/8"-24 inverted flare on the other with a nifty 5/8" od threaded bulkhead fitting for mounting on the other.  They mount right up to the stock steel lines, had to make a custom mount.

So if anyone out there is struggling with brake plumbing keep it in mind you can have custom hoses made and delivered for about $35 each.

Don't tell me that your jack stands are full size oxygen bottles, lol.

Good to know on the lines.

What do you think of that TCP suspension?

It is on 6 ton jack stands, the bottles are future wind chimes, I just had them under to support the arms when I had the coil overs off.

I like the one TCP component I have, which is the strut rods. Only complaint is they could make the steering stop a little better.

What stabilizer bar are you using?

Nice job on the hoses. In my case I used the hoses that came with my Wilwood kit.

Honestly I bought the sway bar so many years ago that I have forgotten what brand it is.
