KADVR6 0 Posted May 18, 2011 the ones that are connected to the bottom of the suspension strut, and the brake pipe flexi slots into it. Just looked at the ones that are on the car, and the flexi pipes are just flapping around, as that part is missing on both struts!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted May 19, 2011 Sheet - that's fairly dangerous mate!! Should be a cheap part from VW IIRC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supercharged 2 Posted May 19, 2011 It shouldn't have passed an MOT like that, should be secured! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KADVR6 0 Posted May 19, 2011 well this is how both sides are looking :-( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Joni 0 Posted May 20, 2011 Doubt you'll be able to get them as they are moulded onto the flexi from memory, however goodrich flexi's only come with what can only be described as a grommet which are penny's. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fendervg 33 Posted May 20, 2011 You can get them from VW alright - not expensive at all - but the problem is that the hose has to go through them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jon_vr6 1 Posted May 20, 2011 When i upgraded the VR to 288mm's the goodridge hoses didnt have any on so luckily for me my 288's came with a set of hoses which i had to cut the rubber connector part off. Easy enough to get over the hose Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted May 20, 2011 Karl is after the metal bracket - whoever did the shocks forgot to fit it! The rubber part can be cut off an old hose and fitted with the cut side facing inwards Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KADVR6 0 Posted May 23, 2011 right my local stealers havent got any in stock, and its going to be just over a week till they can get them in FFS, so need these two metal supports ASAP cheers karl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
