  • replacement stainless rear brake lines, coupe

    Anyone happen to know where you can buy the goodridge stainless hoses for the stock rear calipers? About to buy new carriers and calipers as after 25 years mine have definitely seen better days. Will refresh the lot and replace the now 10yr old s/s lines i put in at the time as they look well aged.

    Thanks

    If you know what fittings and lengths you need, I'd recommend HEL

    Just had some made for my new from brakes and they came in 3days. Going to get some for the rears too

          yeah mine havent yet swelled but looking like they are rusting and didnt want to leave them on any longer after i spotted it. talking of rust, looks like a may have a little bit under where the little plastic storage box goes in the boot (driver side) below the flap on the boot liner. Will need to get it back together, through the mot and then decide whether to paint her finally...Looking a bit sad and old these days whereas a new lick of paint and a proper sorted underside mechanically means it should be back to her former glory.

                I’d check that out, all the coupes Ive seen rust there- I think the under seal robot missed that bit at the factory,
                My CQ and my ABY were rusted through so chances are you will need to weld in some new metal. The quicker you sort it the easier the repair will be

                  I had to replace the section around the seam on the driver's side due to rust. Must be a common area by the look of it.
