Instead of buying cheap replacements of questionable quality, remove your old ones and cut off the hydraulic swages, clamp on some fresh AT cooler rubber line onto the old end nipples with oetiker clamps. Or have then swaged at a hydraulics shop. I have done the rubber line and oetiker clamps on a few cars till now.

work perfect, slide on the old spring tube on them to make them look OE.

they come out cheaper.
