I have 4 hoses in the kit. 3 different sizes! what the hell?
I imagine I need just the 2 long ones for the front, and I don't touch the back. But what are the other 2 random different size ones for? I don't get eet (Why can't someone just prep my car for me in exchange for beer / and I race the thing! )
Cheers. Sorry if it's an obvious question. But if there's a fitting guide anywhere could I have it? I searched - and failed in that quest.

There's a fitting guide [installation instructions] on the back of the pack (assuming it's a genuine Goodridge box) - although it doesn't give a rundown of tools required, etc.

Hmm. Dave threw the pack away when there was nothing inside it, without thinking to look at the back.
Whoopsie!
So any idea about a guide, or maybe a scan of the back of the pack?
What a Berk! lol..
Dave

But heh so no explanation of the random 2 other differing length hoses which is a bit dissapointing. I also am fairly sure there weren't any washers with the kit. Guess I can get some though.
Hmmm.

I suspect the rear hoses are generic, due to unequal lengths. I am sure that when Kyle did my brake hoses they too were unequal.
Don't worry about it
No, mine didn't have washers either [nor the set I've got for the 205]

The rear hoses are supposed to be different lengths. The brake pipes end in different places so the hoses need to be different lengths. I had to send mine back as one of them was too short.
