Braided Hose for MK2 340, same as MK3?

Post by jon-ovlov » 24 May 2011 11:33 am

Going to get some braided lines, seeing as I need to replace most of the system anyway. :lol:

My question is, there are only 3 hoses on my MK2 (haynes manual diagram confirms this early type), where as all the kits come with 4 hoses. I'm assuming I just don't use one of the hoses, and put the 3 in. I'm also assuming they are the same sized connections etc?

Discuss!

Goodrich kit comes with 4 hoses, 2 identical fronts, 2 identical rears.

They obviously just want to give us a spare... :lol:
