Brake Hose and Cylinder Kits

[Arnold Hite]

About six weeks ago Ken KD Roy reported on a possible match of brake
hoses and cylinders kits to some stock NAPA parts. Since then one of my
rear brake hoses has failed. I checked out the NAPA part. It is not the
same. Neither end is correct. The hose is also about 2 inches longer than
the one I took off.. Even if the NAPA part had been correct, it listed at
$23.69. Huge's part goes for $23.43. Below are the part numbers as listed
in Ken's original email.

Front wheel cyl kits: NAPA 923
Rear Wheel Cyl kits: NAPA 861
Front brake hose: NAPA 38001
Rear brake hose: NAPA 38489

I don't know about the other three parts posted in the email, but the
rear brake hose is definitely wrong.

Sorry
Arnold Hite

Arnold,
I have bought all the flexible hoses for my Amphi @ Autozone the
part #'s are Wagner # F-107293 $13.99 each
# F-96192 $18.99 each
I took the originals and laid them next to each other and they seem
to be same. I have not mounted the new one's on yet for I am still
working on the body. Mike Bayman
