goodridge /earls fittings and hose q?
 
can goodridge hose be mixed with earls fittings? and vice versa etc as i have 4 fittings i wish to use in earls but goodrige hose is cheaper etc:thumb:

Personally i would not mix aand match any fittings.
Best scenario it doesn't leak but it is always in the back of your mind it might
Worst scenario it does leak spill oil,fuel whatever in your car which catches fire?

Just spend a few extra ££££ do it 100% and you will be happy that there should be no issues

Yes they are interchangeable provided you stick with similar hose types. Much of the regular nitrile/braided stainless hose is all made in the same factory these days. I've never had a problem doing this.

cheers paul where is the best place to buy these fittings from?

What are you after? What have you got?

If you're near silverstone you can buy from Goodridge or Earls trade counters, if you're west midlands I would go to James Lister & Sons, they do a good range of XRP hose and fittings. London area, then Think Automotive have lots.
