[V8] Brake Hose does it matter??

[Jeremy Ward]

And if you have G60 converted setup, there are 2 varieties of brake hoses
available depending on if your hose screws into the G60 caliper, or into a
little piece of hardline (on a bracket), which then goes into the G60
caliper (this is a more common setup.)

I always buy from someone knowledgeable like Bruce at GAC or Scott at SJM who
knows the right questions to ask.  Of course your options on the weekend are
limited ;-)

Good luck finding your parts, and glad you are safe!  (let this be a lesson
to those of us with old break hoses!)

Cheers,

- Jeremy

Different hoses for G60 vs UFO.  If you still have UFOs, you can use the
same hose as the 200q20v UFOs.
