Hello:
I am re-restoring my 140A and need the 4 brake lines AN859-4D-10, does anyone know where can I find them? Mine look good but are old.
Regards:
Eduardo.

Any hose shop should be able to make them up for you. If you have trouble finding someone to do it, you can order the hose and reuse the fittings on the ends. There is a special "arbor" used to install the ends. It should not be hard to find someone who can do it for you.

Eduardo - did you have any luck sir?!
I am in the same boat and need to replace the flexible brake hoses. Did you find a particular brake hose shop to make yours that you liked?
Thanks! Brian

I found it satisfying and quite easy to make up a set of Aeroquip 303. Borrowed the mandrel from my IA and otherwise just need your bench vice and a fresh hacksaw blade.
303-4 Qty 2ft (order a little extra inches as they might not be cut super sweet from Spruce)
491-4 Qty 4
