Stainless Steel Braided Brake Hoses

Featured Replies

Hi

About to rebuild the front calipers on my SG9 Forester XT and would like to replace the flexible brake hoses (all aroud) at the same time,

I've read many times that the brake pedal feel is improved by fitting stainless steel braided hoses.

From your experiences (taking into account fitment, length, quality etc.), can anyone recommend a manufacturer (Hel, Goodridge etc.).

Cheers


Hel and Goodridge are both reputable brands - have used HEL recently as they have been slightly cheaper than the Goodridge option

Thanks for the reply @Jay762

Did they actually fit ok in terms of OEM locations?

The chap who bought the ones linked to above mentions that the rear are a poor fit...

I had no issues with rears on my STI or the clutch cylinder link I had off them, I have some photos somewhere I think

I used HEL and they are not an issue to fit.
