<div><strong><font face="Arial">Dave, that's the problem with Moss. Its products
are not quality assured. For example, I ordered a drain petcock---and it
leaked. Nice looking brass. Pure crap.</font></strong></div>

brake hose set (584-078)</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Hi all!</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I tried to install the Moss stainless covered brake hose into the 3-way
brass union on my BJ8 rear axle. The threaded portion on the new hose is 1/2
inch long. It bottoms out into the union before it ever seats internally. The
union has a measured depth of approx 0.600", which means I really need a
thread depth on the hose of greater than that.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I have not contacted Moss yet. Has anyone else had this issues?</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Thanks much!</div>
