They suck!! or do they?

I am trying to find a complete kit set of vacuum hoses for a SC. I think that would make for an easier change out.
Or the required length of each Dia. hose, so I could order the correct amount. And then cut and replace one at a time?

My other car is an 85 toyota land cruiser. Approximately 8 miles of vacuum tubes. Toyota guys, myself included, have had good luck with mcmaster carr silicon tubing.

My advice is to change the color with the new stuff. Makes measuring your progress and noting which tubes have been changed much, much easier.

Given the cost of pre-cut tube kits, it makes much more sense to get a long length of tubing and just use some beer and a utility knife to cut your own segments. Start on the inner tubes. Pull, measure, cut, replace. And so on.

Hope this helps.
