    There is another way you can go. Use brake hoses for a 75-77 mav that have shoes. But you need them longer than the regular hoses. They do work I have been there done that.

    good luck

    napa sells them but you need to go ask them because they use the same brake lines for other cars too some of the mav/com parts were interchange able with other cars like mustangs or pintos or mustang 2s just ask them they will have them

    if not where c-73 said, try a place that makes hoses. just take the old one. i have had lines and hoses made before and they are about the same price as store bought. here in macon, there are three or four places that make them....j.m.o....frank...:bananaman :bananaman

    Thanks guys,this will give me some more ideas.I have several older mustangs that I was looking at to see if they would fit but were all just enough different to not work out right.Last night I did buy a hose that is longer that may have possiblities,but that idea of having some made is very interesting,will look into that this week. Will let know what happens.Thanks Herb.
