Need Stainless Brake Hoses.

Post by BosnianLanos »

Now that I finally have a job for the summer, and a good one at that, I can pick up the modifications again. First is suspension. I'm gonna use H&R Sport Springs with Koni Yellow Sport shocks. If anyone doesn't think thats a good idea, or has a better one, do tell. If anyone has lowering springs for sale, I can do that too. Money really isn't an issue between new/used, I'd just like to help someone out.

But my main question. I was on the Goodridge UK site looking for stainless brake hoses, but they have no Daewoos listed. Does anyone know of any lines that would cross reference with the Lanos? Opel, Vaux, etc? Help!

i have an '89 lemans/kadett/astra and i'm using the front calipers from the lanos and everything looks like it will be perfect. right now the parts are at mediablast/powdercoaters but i can check the line fittings to be 100% but i'd say they should be the exact same being as they are build on the same platform.

if you plan to do any racing, the constent use of the brake will make the rubber lines streach and give you poor feedback and braking.
