    Need pics of a 350x brake hose guide

    Hey guys, just about done getting all the parts for my resto, but one thing I cant find is the wire brake hose guide for the front brakes. I was hoping someone here could post a few good detailed pics of one, I'm planning on just trying to make one myself. Much appreciated...

    I think I have a broken one if you want it, at least you can use the base plate from it. Give me a couple hours and I will get a pic of the one on my show girl, it is still virgin. Years ago I bought 6 new ones,, the only good one left is on the show girl

    That would be great, I've never seen one, except in a couple pics. Do they just break that easily? Hopefully I can make it work. Thanks

    I've always felt that the stiff upper OEM hose needs that elongated guide.

    I switched to SS braided lines and have a YZ white plastic readily available guide for it. It's a 2 piece thing - metal mount, plastic guide. If the plastic breaks, your out 7$.

    It's for my 350X with the 450R swinger so I won't have pics until I'm done........
