Everything you need to build your own brake & clutch lines

Designed on the basis of self-plumbing for motorcycles, this concept from Goodridge is quite versatile in that it can also be used on Race and Rally vehicles. Hose lines tested to 2000 PSI by Goodridge mean these 'get out of jail' hose assemblies are essential to add to your race truck. Select a length of hose, select your Banjo fitting or adaptors, and assemble.

Hose lengths are supplied with two swaged female fittings, both with 3/8"x24 JIC/UNF concave fittings with adaptors and banjos available to suit all applications. Hoses are manufactured from PU-covered 600 series hoses with a max temperature of 60°C.

Quick, Easy, Safe.

  2. Select Required Hose Length

    Buildaline hoses are manufactured from 200mm to 1700mm (25mm increments). Measuring from the existing center of the banjo bolt to the existing center of the banjo bolt, deleting 90mm to take account of the fittings at each end, will give you the correct Buildaline length to order.
  3. Select Banjo Bolts

  4. Select Ancillaries

    Select the appropriate fittings, adaptors and T-pieces

Installation Guide:

  1. Fit in place the banjo adaptors with the bolts and the correct amount of washers. Goodridge recommended torque setting for this is 14 - 24 ft/lbs. This torque setting is advisory for the fittings, NOT for your master cylinders or calipers. Care must be taken not to damage either your master cylinder or calipers.
    Please also ensure that you have chosen the correct threaded bolt for your application.
  2. Locate the correct length hose. Route the hose safely, ensuring it cannot be damaged by daily use. Use tube clamps if necessary (SBKPLCC-05) to help with the routing.
  3. Screw the hose onto the banjo adaptors, making sure that it has been fully tightened. 
    TIP - as a rough guide, finger tight then a 1/4 turn will give you 14 ft/lbs.
  4. P-Clips (SBKPLCC-05) are available to ensure your hose is routed correctly.
  5. Bleed your brakes correctly and carefully with New Brake fluid.
  6. Test for any leaks
  7. After using your bike/car, we recommend that you give your brakes and fittings a thorough inspection to check for any leaks.
    If any leaks are present, tighten your fittings and repeat step 5 once more.
