Brake booster vacum hose

Postby StanTheMan » Mon Jun 18, 2018 9:35 am

Currenly im using the NA6 one on my BP-W4 convsrsion.
While it fits. Its not exactly confidence inspiring. A
As its not a OEM fit. Its 29 years old. A little cracked here & there. But ice nit found a nb8a hose anywhere.
What solutions are there.
Is the brake booster on the NB8A different?

You can split the booster hose open and recover the one way check valve and then replace the hose for a better fitting type.
I just spent hours wedging the check valve along a tight fitting hose for a custom fitting.
All i can say is rubber grease and mechanic's gloves are your friends..
