[Healeys] Brake Hoses ---

[Earl Kagna]

Graham:

Thanks - this info helps greatly!  As it now develops, we will be pulling 
the flexible hoses off of a friends BJ8 in the next few days - we're pretty 
sure that the hoses are original (believe it of not).

If it turns out that there is any substantial difference in the 
measurements, I will post to the list.  I believe from what I have here, 
that your measurments are correct.

Thanks again,  ---------  Earl

Hi Earl,

Assuming that Moss sent me the correct BJ8 hydraulic flexible hoses
(these are new and not yet installed), their lengths are as follows:

2 front brake flexible hoses (each):  13 1/8"  (333mm).
Rear (axle) brake flexible hose: 12 9/16"  (320mm).
Clutch flexible hose:  9 3/4"  (248mm).

I hope that helps you figure out what you have there.

Cheers, Graham Wilkie.
