Earl's parts are made in USA. No Chinese junk here. The pull off force for the bolt together lines is higher than machine crimp lines too so don't worry about failure (as long as you assemble correctly).
You can see a video of the assembly process here.
To make brake lines we need Speed-Seal -3 hose and 3/8 / 10mm hose ends.
There are two basic types of hose ends: adjustable and non-adjustable. Adjustable allow easier angular clocking once the hose ends are attached to the hose but the non-adjustable type are nothing to fear in that regard and they save some $. If you go adjustable you only need one end adjustable per section, not both.
Before ordering parts you first need to decide if you want a three piece set for the front (like OEM) or two piece. Two piece saves labor and money for the parts.
For most GS applications the following hose ends will work:
Straight adjustable hose end (banjo) is P/N 600403
Straight non adjustable hose end is P/N 600703
Angled adjustable hose end is P/N 600503
Angled non adjustable hose end is P/N 600803
Be sure to order enough hose. It takes about 8' to make a 3-piece front set + rear line.
You can reuse your stock GS banjo bolts but be sure to get new crush washers.
The following set of lines cost $89 + tax for the parts.
