[Vwdiesel] Caddy brakes

[Bob Soukup]

Somewhere I recall reading that the rear brake lines for the Caddy were 
no longer available.  How about going to your local Swagelok dealer for 
fittings that will adapt to flex metal hose or standard brake hose?  My 
experience with Swagelok fittings has been rather pricy but otherwise 
good for other purposes.  Just a thought, since I too have a Caddy with 
aging rear brake hoses.
