replacement for rubber portion of 930 110 328 05

[70SWT]

Has anyone found a good replacement for the rubber portion (alone) of item #24 for 3.2L cars seen in the parts diagram below? The entire part runs >$200.

I was going to run around the hydraulics shops here looking, but hopefully there is a known solution online - thanks.

How would you define 'good replacement'?

From the pic it looks like there are only 2 45 degree bends.

On my 930 engine I was able to source some cheap thick silicone and heater/coolant hose from Amazon to replace a few sections of hard to find things.

This is just an air hose so I'd imagine any of the above would work, with a few brass 45's.

It actually looks like a 135 and a 90 now that I take a second look.

I used this piece from Pegasus Auto Racing Supplies:



I brought it to a hydraulics shop to see if they could crimp it on like the original, but for whatever reason they couldn't fit the pipe into their machine. So I just used a couple of hose clamps. Seems to be just fine.

Thanks all - will check out the Pegasus piece.

Yes, since the overall part attaches with hose clamps, clamps seemed likely fine to attach the rubber and metal portions too (recognizing the absence of a flange).

Did the same as above with a piece of AC hose (non barrier). I had to enlarge the hose ID a bit on one side, the other side was ok. Then I used two hose clamps and saved big bucks (or euros I should say).

I used the Pegasus item, but it is a bit big. It will work for now.
