S.S. Braided Line Shop Locally?

I'm struggling with a SS oil feed line I obtained recently. The 1st line I got was 9 3/4" long, 1 1/4" too short. The second line I got was 14", too long. So at this point I'd like to find a local shop in the lower mainland that could modify the long one, shorten it down to 12". Any ideas would be very helpful.

Hi Steve. Try a hydralic hose place. The ones that make them. They might be able to shorten it for you.

I seem to remember Ross having some brake hoses made up at Greenline on Venables in Vancouver, near East Van brewing (bonus!).

Oh my. That was quite a while ago, 2012 maybe. Ya, I had a couple of brake lines made for my red KZ1000. Great service, good price. And they made them while I waited.

Greenline is now very close to you. 2945 190 st in Surrey. They have made many hydraulic hoses for me and have a huge inventory of hoses and fittings.

Kelowna has Allans Hose n All, they are good, do it while you wait, cheaper than online plus shipping costs.

I contacted Greenline yesterday. The nearest to me would be their north Langley location, beside Shail's. They only do custom work at their Venables location, heading there today.
