Just brought my '72 C-10 home and am getting ready to do brakes all the way around. Picked up new wheel cylinders and calipers last night. Went back out today to get rotors, pads and hoses for the front only to discover that no one locally has hoses in stock and, worse, no one I checked with even has a listing for the front driver side. What the heck? Anyone have any insight here? If there's one thing I won't take chances with in a vehicle it's the brakes, and I'm not about to entrust my safety and others' to 35-year-old rubber hoses.
Also wondering if anyone has a better (cheaper) source for Russell speed bleeders (#639590) than Summit or Jegs (about $10/pair + crazy handling fee).
Thanks,
Brent
