Bah, that's the ghetto way of doing it. I have mine looped through and the lines don't even touch the bar. Only problem is I have a leak now...

ooooohhhh owned..... haha yeah get new washers they can be had at any auto parts store, just take the bolt with you and you can even use one thats close, and make sure when you reinstall them there is no dirt or debris on the contact surface for there goes your new washers. good luck. its not that hard or that big of a deal.

It really doesn't look as cool as making it fit properly, (yes, I've been accused of acting like a single diaper baby).

I also agree; brand new, real crush washers, are what you should use, if you want it to work right for another ten years or more.

Nice to see OEM pricing is affordable on some things, too. I hope they are that cheap. (The girl at the cash-counter is way better looking at Nissan, than at AutoBlown, for sure).

Those same style banjo bolt crush-washers for big-brakes, (if you lose them from a kit); are $8.51, (a pair), to replace!

How can the larger ones be cheaper?

By the way, has anyone priced strut mount gaskets? **$88.51**, No BS!

I said; "Are you serious, 4 pieces of red paper?"
She said they are; "...not really expensive, just extremely *convenient*."
