    Beau, I had a very hard time replacing mine in my VH SS earlier this year, called wrecker after wrecker, drove for hours to wreckers whom said they had one when they didnt', couldn't find any on ebay.

    I ended up having to get pirtek to make me up a hose line using their fittings and my original ends as my pipe had been rubbing on the back of my sump and without warning, blew a heap of fluid one morning all over the place.

    Best of luck, if you find one, if they have a 2nd one, let me know I'll buy it on the spot!!!!

    thanks for the reply Dylan

    hey Drew, originally had the same problem. the original steel lines had been rubbing on the sump & only noticed cause i had the engine out.
    i asked around & most mechanics seem to run high pressure oil lines & double clamp them. another big mistake. blew the side out of the high pressure side & all under the freshly painted undercarrage & extractors, gearbox & so on. massive mess & the amount of smoke!! lucky the car never caught fire.

    i spent 4 hours ringing wreckers (most are a rude bunch) & found a set.

    if i come across another set i'll PM you.

    Beau.
