as Craig stated, I had a 3/8 male end. I needed a 7/16. All is good now.

^^^ Hi Josh / Furyus67 ^^^
Of course , Napa stands for “ Never American Parts Available “
Ben ,
Josh had to get credit to replace the wrong one….. since they need a minimum of two occasions to get it right…..
Perhaps you would prefer DOT hoses , and NOT sunsong…….
If so , P.M. me , as per forum rules , if interested…..
( And probably less expensive than from a Parts Store )…

Thanks, Furyus! I bought NAPA 24058.
Made in China, but trying to fix car for Saturday afternoon.

I'm curious . . . is a China-made rubber part, made to USA specs, worse than a NOS USA-made rubber part that's been sitting around, ageing, since it was made ages ago?
Just curious. No more, no less. Judgment call?

*** N.O.S. *** U.S.A. *** is far far better….
We are not talking 100 years old —- we are talking 10 - 30 years old, so they are :
A ) Fine or Perfect
B ) Gold Fittings rather than just Silver
( We try for Gold Medals , not Silver in the Olympics , EH ?? )
C ) They Are Physically 15 - 33 % thicker , so they simply last longer…
D ) They are “ D O T “ hoses ( certified by the Department of Transportation ) as opposed to “ sunsong “
E ) Mine are no more expensive than the Chineseum / Japanese garbage …..
F ) There is NO Q C ( Quality Control ) on Chineseum / Japanese parts — such that they are frequently wrong ….
You make the call for what you want to do for yourself , I never force anybody to do anything they don’t want to do…….
I know what I ONLY put in my own cars …..
My intelligent customers want what I want , also , that is all I need to know , and that says it all …….

NAPA usually has decent quality. I have seen You-tube video where NAPA has strict control over quality of overseas made parts. I did the same thing as Josh and ordered the NAPA 24058.
Picked it up this morning. Installed OK, but it is made in China.
