1970 may Dearborn Built B2-
Brake hoses:----------------------------------
I know that current brake hoses need to meet DOT standards and have the double crimp, however, who sells the most accurate brake hoses?
For the rear the NPD one is missing the expansion rings, and the one at CJ Pony looks closest: http://www.cjponyparts.com/brake-hose-rear-all-1970/p/BHR4/
Thoughts?
How about the most accurate front ones as well?
Since I assume that these hoses will have some stampings (of course not the correct Ford ones) on them, to help them look the most accurate and minimize point deduction, should I remove any markings?
Axle vent hose-------------------------------
Similar question. Who has the most accurate vent hose?
Thanks,
Tony

Hi Craig,
Thanks for that info. Unfortunately those are for 1969 only and not 1970.
I am going to contact David at Dsd and see if he has any recommendations on the 1970's

Hi Tony,
I knew he didn't have them for my 70 SCJ yet, but I didn't know if 70 b2 were different than mine. I think David is suppose to be working on them for the 70's. Be sure to reply back with what he tells you.

Hi Craig,
I think that all 1970 Mustangs used the same hose. I sent Dave a message and will let you know what I get back.

Craig,
Good News. Just heard back from Dave and he will have 1970 Hoses available in 45 days that are correctly stamped to the vehicle.

I bought a 69 rear brake hose for my R code from David and it is very nice. Dated etc. I also bought his C8OA strut rod bushings and they were nice also.
