Braided OMP Lines
 

So a few weeks ago I made a thread on the technical section on trying to find certain size fittings to make my own OMP lines.Ｉｄｉｄ　ｎｏｔ　ｇｅｔ　ｔｈｅ　ａｎｓｗｅｒ　Ｉ　ｗａｎｔｅｄ．Ｉ　ｗａｓ　ｔｏｌｄ　 ｔｏ　ｂｕｙ　ｔｈｅｍ　ｆｒｏｍ　ａ　ｒｏｔａｒｙ　ｗｅｂｓｉｔｅ　ｆｏｒ　２００　ｂｕ ｃｋｓ．I just could not get myself to buy 2 lines for 100 bucks a piece.　Ｉ　ｗａｓ　ｅｖｅｎ　ｃａｌｌｅｄ　ｃｈｅａｐ！ Anyways, I manage to get premade lines and some fittings. Here is one of the line I have put together, tell me what you guys think.

hahah nice work, but don't you think its a bit over kill ?

Actually, you weren't called cheap. TTT was basically stating that sooner or later you'll HAVE to spend money. Its the nature of the car hobby. Nobody told you to do anything but offered suggestions. You mentioned that someone sells them pre-made and a suggestion was made because there would be no guess work for you. You would buy, install, and be happy. Answers were only given based off of the information you gave. You shouldn't take everything so personal.

So you made all 4 of them for 80 dollars? And how did you get them to fit?

Where did you get the lines and fittings from and which lines and fittings did you use?

why dont you make them and sell them to people. YOu could probably get $100 a set and that alone would make me buy a set.

Here too! Custom made lines.

But also just check the F/S sections. People always selling.

Why didnt you just make both sides with the same fitting like Banjo adapter? Why did you put the AN fitting at the bottom?

it's really hard to find them that size, goodridge makes them but there like 25 bucks a piece

i'll post pics of them installed on friday.

dude. go to petsmart ....get those mini air tube line. they are vinyl. ..i replace my OMP line using this. I tested them in boiling H2O. they work fine and cheap too. 3.00 for 10 feet. hope that help.

additionaly. the pressure in the OPM line are so small that you will not need to use steel braided line.

yea , but that will get brittle overtime. i dont even think those petsmart lines are oil resistant

Vinyl would not last long at all near all that heat.

Here are some more pictures of the lines and fittings attached to the mop, I'll post more pics once the mop is on the motor.

Good stuff! If I still had an OMP, I'd be down for a set :lol:.
