My brakes are crap.

Where's the best place to get a set of goodridge hoses for my Disco ( non ABS ) ? With stainless fttings.

Thanks.

Define (EhEM) "not very good"

Fitting stanless braided hoses will not change the amount of grip on the disk surface, all it will do is limit the swell of the fleis and make the perdal feel slightly sharper.  IT WILL NOT MAKE YOUR TRUCK STOP ANY FASTER.
Chances are you either have diska that are rusted at the outer edge (common, especially the back) or that have glazed over.  You can try grlaze-busting them with emery cloth or replacing them, use branded ones.

I found my LSE had a set of disks in loverly condition, no scratches, flat polisished surface, great.  Only drawback, it wouldn't stop.

I fitted EBC, all round (took 2 years to finsh the job)  HOLY SNOT, it stops now all right.

Spongey brakes - hence the the Goodridge requirement - new fluid will help too.

It had new discs and pads fitted before I bought it, they are in good order - but don't know what make they are.

I'll change the brake lines 1st and take it from there. I also need them to be +2" to take into account the lift.

So, a supplier ............... ?????

I got my hoses from Devon 4x4.  I think they were Goodridge . . . . . .
