Does anyone know the part number for the brake flexi hoses just in front of the back axle on an '86 230GE SWB? They have clips top and bottom - not nuts as supplied by Western (Scott is struggling to find the right numbers).

Braided steel

John:

Don't waste your hard earned cash in buying the original MB part. Buy yourself a full set of brake flexi-hoses of braided steel produced by the GWOA for its members for the same price. They will improve the braking of your G and last forever. For information, contact Tim Carnell (Northern Rep) in the G-Wizz.

Thanks, but I've already ordered them. I'm picking them up tommorrow from Western as the Merc is on the 4 post lift as we speak (so to speak). As a new member it would be nice to know what parts the club actually holds. Perhaps you could either post it here or in the mag. I would definitely have bought from the club if I'd known. I was only aware of the helpful contact numbers in the back of the mag.
