Mazdatrix sells a nice set for about $150 that includes everything you need. But the corkspor ones probably come with all of the needed equipment. Both have gotten preaty good reviews from this forum.

Crush washers are like $.30 cents at any auto store...


$25 for 4 washers... Geezs


You can them made at any hydraulic hose shop. They cost about $75. and they tend to be better made, being your there watching them do it...

You can have a local shop make them for less. Brand names != better.
