There are a lot of companies in UK that can supply custom brake pipes just google for a supplier - we build F1 cars in UK don't think these will cause a problem

Be that way, see if we care.
And the next time you blokes decide to send us another rock group, we'll deny them permission to enter the country.

No, really. I think Goodridge will supply to the UK.

Miller and Budweiser do, after all...

Goodridge Fluid Transfer Systems

Well if you look at your recommended source the brake pipes are Goodridge so as Goodridge brake line kits are manufactured, constructed and tested entirely in the UK why would he buy these from USA when they are made in UK?

Rob,

I tried to be helpful, 'eh? I didn't know where they were made, just trying to help. My stepdad (GRHS) was from Stoke. I learned volumes of engineering from him as a danged small boy.

Good luck, mate.

Hi

I wasn't getting at you I was just surprised at the forum member going off about UK pop groups. Sometimes a reminder that the Crossfire was built in Germany using German & European parts is needed
