Lama4x4 do them for about £11 each and at any length up to 1 metre! All for the same price. Helpful chappy, I'll be buying from him when I'm ready to do them

I have a set from him and they are nice hoses. Wish I had gone for 1 metre ones though. I have a set of +175mm ones in green if you want for £55 inc P+P ! (5 hoses) :D
I have not driven with them although they were fitted. Stiil upgrading parts so thinking of changing to longer ones.

Upto 1 metre  :?:  How big a lift do you have  :D

I have fitted Goodridge to my Disco. I'm now disappointed as the unions at each end are corroding, only the flexi bit of the pipes is stainless.

I have heard good things about Llama 4x4 & I believe they can supply you with s/steel unions also, it would be worth paying for.

Cheers, Dan

The 1 metre ones are designed to run down the radius arms.
With long travel shocks you then have loads of travel with no fear of ripping the brake lines off.
I only found this out after buying the ones I have.

I think we paid £25 for the set of stainless braided ones from Paddocks, was a while back though.
