Won't run? Engine, cooling system, fuel pump, carb, clutch, tranny, brakes, etc. The old messages from the NPCA 'Engine & Mechanical' category are here.

There is a place in Sparks NV, just trying to find a source maybe that anybody has used before.

If not yes I will just take mine in and have a 4-6 sets made.

I am in the SF Bay Area and used old numbers from (I think) yhe old New Mexico site and ordered them. They did not fit. I then found that many places make them in this area. I picked the closest 1 in Pacheco ca. Took in my old ones and he whipped them out while I waited. $75 like 2 years ago. In a pinch I could possibly retrace my steps and them mail them on...

I had my whole braking system re-plumbed. Any brake place can make you up new hoses with fittings.

keep in mind that if you do lift the springs you may need a bit longer lines....or...am I wrong? Anyone with a lift?

I haven't done any of my soft lines but the hard lines I just buy the easy bend stuff at napa and make my own. I think I paid about $30 for a flaring kit a few years back and it works just fine. Actually, that's how I added the MC from my '74 LandCruiser to Plow Patrol...metric on the mc side and standard on the rest of the vehicle.

I had my soft lines lengthened just a touch. There wasn't an immediate need for it with the 3" lift as there's not a whole lot of flex happening under there.

Brake and clutch hoses – 1969 Patrol

Having researched the various posting I have summarized the five rubber hoses needed:
Front brake: NAPA 5784 (2 required)
Rear brake: NAPA 11190 (2 required)
Clutch Sleeve: NAPA 36507
Can anyone confirm this is correct?
Thank you.

For the rear brake hose you only need one.
