Can anyone help me? I have a Marina disc brake set up on my pick up and am in need of new flexible brake hoses. I used the Owen Burton kit when i fitted them and have no idea where to get replacement hoses from to suit! Anyone know where they can be purchased or if the kit used a standard hose from another car and if so which? Thanks in advance for your help! :D

I found that these pipes ended up too close to the kingpin for comfort, and ended up moving the right angled plate at the car end upwards so that they didn't rub on the king pin - but I'm paranoid :D.

Hopefully these hoses will be the same length as the original one's that were supplied with the kit that i got from Owen Burton all those years ago, in which case they will be fine as i have done many miles with them! Was just in need of replacements as i managed to shear a pipe off in one of them! :roll:

Yup, mine were to replace Goodridge hoses from C Ware, which were longer. As I say, probably me just being over cautious - but I try to be with brakes :D
