6 hose kit. I'm assuming it has ABS fitted?

[sharki786]

Cheers buddy

6 hose is for cars with rear discs, 4 hose is for cars with drums.

[sharki786]

funny thing is that the 4 1 has 4 hoses & so does the 6 1. Bit confusing. Does any1 if goodrich are any good? Also which is the cheapest place to get them from? What about the HEL make?

Thanks

I believe this is to do with does it have a load sensor valve or not (early vs late abs)

(b.t.w I could be wrong on this?)

[sharki786]

bone, you just made it more confusing for me now lol. Think il ring the guy on ebay and speak to him/her. So goodrich good make then? What about the hel make?

[boneybradley]

goodridge are a very well established make and top quality (can't say I've heard of the others)

[sharki786]

Who got braided line fitted? Who did you buy them from? How much did you pay? And what make? Need to get some soon as now. As people are telling me different things1 thing are both my front and rear calipers banjo fitting? I have ate at from ane lucas as back. Disc size on front is 288mm and my car is 96 (p) anniversary.
