Quality product exactly as advertised

Awesome!

Great upgrade!

Disappointed with this part

I order many parts from GoWesty and they have always been high quality and an exact fit. This hose is the exception. It replaces the factory short rubber hose and the short steel line that connects to the slave cylinder. The end that connects to the slave cylinder is fixed and does not spin, so you have to twist a two foot long hose to thread into the slave cylinder. The nipple that inserts into the slave is concave which is opposite of the factory steel line so it does not make a good seal and leaks. Replacing multiple fittings with one hose is a good idea but this part just lacks the quality I expect from GoWesty.

Hi Bryan, we certainly agree that the fitting at the slave cylinder makes the installation trickier, but once installed it should seal perfectly. If yours is leaking the fitting is defective, it is cross-threaded (very easy to do), or the there is an issue with the port on the slave cylinder. Design-wise it is the correct fitting for the job, so we recommend removing it and inspecting it closely. If the fitting is defective, we are happy to replace it under warranty. Keep us posted!
