    Does anyone know what brake hose is needed for this conversion? The Versailles hoses won't work. They hit the a-arm. Will I have to use different calipers and hoses or is there a hose to work? If anyone knows and has a part number it would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

    It sounds like you have the calipers upside down, make sure you have the bleeders at the top. You will have to use addapters to conect the lines to your stock fitting or you can get a centric hose#150.61017 Dave

    When I did mine, I didn't look for stock hoses. I went to a place called Air Hose Supply and had them make braided stainless hoses for me. Just take them both ends and tell them how long. The Hose Doctor can make them also.

    Many years ago when I converted Granada disc I used Raybestos part no "BH36743"
    make sure it's returnable not sure about your conversion. Gerry
