Tech QuestionBill Jerold, lynbrook, NY, 1972 Plym Duster 360 Rick, I replaced the front calipers on my Duster (standard '73-up single piston sliders). I got China made front flex hoses from Parts Authority D.B.A. Advance auto parts. Dorman hoses are made in China, too (Tiawan exactly). NAPA, Raybestos too are all made in China. Can't seem to find anything made in USA, Canada, Europe or Japan. I put the China made lines in, but I'm a bit nervous. I contacted PureLine about custom braided hoses. What do you think? Thanks and regards, ~Bill They have to meet SAE specs no matter where they are made, and the plant is probably ISO certified. They are being sold by major US companies with their names on the line (literally and figuratively). I don't like this any more than you do, but they should be fine, however... Our politicians are slowly selling us out and forcing all manufacturing offshore. Your vote matters! Rick
