Polished stainless steel brake booster vacuum lines for sale | The De Tomaso Forums

tsoloMember

I was under my car recently to replace the rubber brake booster hoses and had an epiphany. Why don't I replace that old rusty steel vacuum line with a polished stainless one to match my water lines. I searched the vendors websites with no luck so I set out on my own. Here's the finish product made of .562 o.d., .035 wall 304 stainless. Bent on a mandrel, beaded ends, and polished. I decided to improve hose routing by bending a full 90 at the fire wall rather than the original 30 degree kick. Take a look. What do you think? Price is $150 plus $20 for shipping. Contact me at T.solo@ymail.com.

One thing I've learned boating: double clamp all rubber hoses. Cheap insurance.
