Has anyone on here had any experience with Aeroflow or the like, braided hose and fittings for their aircon? If so are the fittings reliable or do they leak. Like to know how reliable they are before spending the big $$ to do this. Cheers

Torsion bar installation

I’m just in the process of installing larger Torsion bars to my A body. Just wondering if anyone can tell me the correct way to install them as per the factory service manual.

Cheers
