My brothers had goodridge braided brake hoses (frm ktec) on his williams for 4months an they've just split wonderin if any1 else has had similar problems with these?

Yeah guna git in touch with em on tues jus wondering if any1 had any braided brakes an had em pop aswell

Probably because the ones they (goodridge) supply for the williams are too short and get stretched at full lock.

Christ, wouldn't want to be surprised with only 1 side working when slowing down from 120!

I've heard of them failing a few times on several types of car. Hence why I'd never fit them. They usually fail at the ends though.
