Cheap hose kit...good idea?


Recommended Posts

Cheers guys for the replies.

 

I might just go for it and see what they are like.

 

I've had a look re buying them in black Oliver and found a couple of reasonably priced listings...

If I do end up buying the cheap red ones I'll try and get some pics up on here before and after fitting them.

I bought samco hoses and they only lasted a few years, the larger diameter hoses to the rad split internally as did a couple of the smaller ends going to aux pump, I wrote to samco and included photos etc as it looked like a manufacturing fault..   But they didn't really care and just came back with me needed original sales invoice etc, which i didn't have anymore.

 

So i replaced with Roose motorsport hoses which looked much better to me.
