I don't know if there is any difference in hose, but from what I was reading, it's not advisable to use the ends from one manufacturer with the hose from another manufacturer. Possibly the hose wall thickness is different, and the fittings compensate for it, but there are no specs, or proof to back that up. I'm calling voodoo on the brand "x" fitting must use brand "x" hose.

I'll probably breakdown and buy the Earl hose too.

On a side note. Did I ever send you the pics from my real camera of the a-pillar? I know I took them just I can't recall if I emailed them to you. Alcohol does a number on your brain cells

Yes you did send them to me

I love alcohol too

Just checking. I still need to send you the passenger side pillar so we can make it match the driver but keep forgetting to pull it and ship it. I might just wait until Oct when I pick up the DD. It'll be hard not to tell Johnny to turn up the boost when it no longer is required to get be back and forth to work.

No rush on the other pillar. That offer is open to you as long as if I can get the dye.

You da man. I'll make sure to double check dye availability before I mail it and it just randomly shows up on your doorstep
