Default Need source for hose fabrication

Going through an overhaul on an O-360 (Mooney). Can anyone recommend a source for getting new oil hoses fabricated? I'm told there are shops where you can send your old hoses and they'll make copies.

Any info appreciated...especially shops in the SE US.

Thanks!
John

John,

Check out www.aircrafthose.com. I had them fabricate all the hoses for my Rocket and they were, by far, the least expensive of every shop I had quoted. They did quality work and it showed up on time. I would recommend them highly.

Default Hose Source for FFW Kit

Any idea who builds up the hoses for the FFW kits? I need to replace the FI servo -> spider hose.

I gotta go with Robbie on this one. I just replaced all the hoses on my -6 with Teflon lined, with integrated firesleeve hoses. Lucky Louque at Air Salvage of Dallas recommended PHT in Tulsa. I went with them. They did a beautiful job, quick turn around and a very fair price.

Default Or go to your local hydraulics shop for

About a third of the price for the same thing...You'd have to provide your own firesleeve though.
