Default Goodridge Hose kit - Installation question

I have just bought a set of Goodridge hoses. Inside the pack I have a bag of copper washers however I cannot see any banjo bolts included in the pack. Is this correct? I assume I reuse the existing banjo bolts by unscrewing them out of the brake callipers.

You're right, re-use the existing banjo nolts, and the new copper washers..... be aware that the centre supports 'may' not go straight through the bracket on the strut, they may need adjustment.... ie, grinder..... crap for brake items, but Goodridge are aware of the issue, and decided to do nothing about it....???

Thumbs up

I fitted new age goodridge on the front of my classic and the only thing had to be done was drill a hole in the strut bracket and put a bolt through to hold the hose in place

Yes Ive done this, a 'bugeye' era hose set onto a 98. The rear set went in ok, and the front, I made little aluminum adaptors to hold the support to the strut bracket, then that bolted through the bracket with a washer, very solid mount.
I didn't think to take pics of that scenario becaue I thought I was the only nutter who would do that.
To be on topic, my set did have the new banjo bolts, 8 washers, 4 banjo bolts, and the hoses, 4 of the strut brace clips, and a sticker.
