Wheel spacers and lowering springs
The Goodridge 38101 fit the fronts perfectly, but do not fit the rear. The rear lines are the correct length but they terminate with a male end and the XK8 lines terminate with a female. I used a female 10mm/1 bubble flair to bubble flair adaptor and made an attachment system with a washer and a clamp. It's not pretty but it works ok. When I can get the correct lines for the rear, I'll replace what I have. I've driven the car about 100 miles with this setup and there are no leaks.
The spacers are 25mm. The rears look like they would fit without the spacers but the front has to have them (with 18" Double Five wheels).
One more thing: Did you have to also buy banjo bolts (and associated washers) to fit the lines to the calipers, or did those come with the lines? Thanks.
That's a good question. I'm not sure if this was a mistake in the packaging, but my Goodridge lines only came with 4 washers in the package. It has banjo bolts for all four lines and needs two washers for each line. I had to buy washers to use on the rears. I went to AutoZone and they had one package of washers that were the correct size.
