[Mgs] Goodridge SS brake hoses

[Paul Hunt]

Because you can't see the rubber you can't see the first fine cracking that 
eventually develops, and is when you would normally replace them.  It's 
impossible to say when SS hoses should be replaced as it depends on the 
quality of the rubber, and perhaps the temperature conditions it is used 
under.  If you could get aircraft quality, then you could use their 
periodicity as a guide.  If SS was all I could get then I'd be changing them 
every few years, but I'd only fit them if there was no other choice.
