What autoparts store would you recommend for having
a better quality vacuum hose?

i'm going to pick up a bunch of hose of varying sizes today most likely,
so I figured I might as well see what you guys think.

I'm expecting a "they're all the same ****" reply,
but who knows, maybe someone has had a good experience with one place over another.

I dunno,
let me know.
thanks

 

You going for some bright yellow blinging ones or are your's actaully cracked and you need new ones?

 

just standard black,
new intake manifold going on and I want all fresh hoses.

 

go with napa or car quest, they are generally made of better quality rubber than auto zone or advanced auto, maybe even a hose or hydro shop, they may even be able to get different colors.

 

cool thanks,
yeah blacks the only color i want.
napa eh? there is one of those around here, its a small one but i'll hit it up,
we dont have carquest though.

got alot of pepboys, kragen, and some autozone tho.

Thats where you need to look

 

I just went to autozone & went in back & found the ones that were the clostest match. I had to dig pretty good to find the ones I needed though.

 

hmmm,

up

 

local parts store man I have some glow in the dark for sale let me know

 

yeh, they sell hoses at every parts store,

my original question was not WHERE CAN I FIND HOSES.
but rather what place sells a good quality hose.

thanks

That would be perfect. Ask if you can go in the back and choose what you want. I do a lot of turbo setups and such so I just go to autozone and go in the back and buy the rolls of Goodridge vacuum lines and fuel/emissions lines in varying sizes. They should be on black cylindrical looking stands with blue stickers with goodridge on them. I've never had any leaks, cracks or splits to date

 

good ish,
I just went to a local off name auto parts store and got all the hoses I needed there.

they're black, and look up to snuff, so i'm satisfied.

thnx.
