So been at it bit by bit. Got rear swinger and axle from a forum member. Picked up the bracket off ebay and caliper from yambits. So now I need to figure out brake hose. I've looked at spiegler and goodridge, any feedback on these 2 places to source it? Or recommendations of somewhere else to source a brake line? After that is sorted I'm gonna get the wheel laced up and focus on frame mods for seat/tank.

I've done this, too. Automotive brake shop made custom lines for me while I waited, and they looked and fit perfectly.

There use to be a guy on eBay that did custom mail order lines. It was great. I had a ton made by him. Measure them up, send out measurements, a few days later the line showed up.

I like converting to -3AN and getting brake line and fittings from Summit.

I too get my brake lines made locally.

Figure out the fittings, hose length and clocking you need and go buy the parts.
