I finished stripping the engine bay on my B/E today, and removed all the steel hydraulic lines.
Doesnt look like the vendors sell preformed steel lines. Have to bend your own it looks like.
Different materials are offered as well -
VB has steel lines in various lengths with "bubble flare ends" and the sell some type of manual bending tool. Says they dont fit early sprites with Whitworth threads.
Does my b/e have whitworth threads?
Moss sells copper nickel lines said to be easier to bend and sells a set for the b/e. They say nothing about threads. Expensive!
Thoughts on sources, type of line, and tools I should buy?
What have others done when replacing b/e hydraulics?
