Title: White Power shock hose
Post by: JohnnyO on March 06, 2010, 03:52:35 pm: I'm needing the hose and banjo bolt for the remote reservoir on an '84 model WP shock. I've tried the local hydraulics place but they couldn't get the right fittings.
Is Bert Floods shop still in business?

Na , Trevor Flood took over from Bert in the eighties (Remember Vandenbergs RM500? sponsored by TFR)
The 84's dont have the joint do they? I got a almost new 83 and the hose threads straight in.
The 85/86 one I got has the banjo joint coz the hose is so short compared to 83/84

on the 83 it screws straight in both ends.If walter cant help try Greg at ASR suspension . He has ready made ones but they are not the same as original.They are without the extra sheath around the hose so looks skinny.

Post by: holeshot buddy on March 06, 2010, 06:18:00 pm: mine was complete with a dodgy hose
so they replaced the hose and ends i would have had the bolts
