Vacuum booster hose valve broken.
« on: June 22, 2015, 23:44:51 »
While out on a drive recently my vacuum hose assembly separated at one end of the check valve.  Since it's part of the brake system I'm not sure I want to re-glue the nipple onto the end again.  I've looked around for a replacement and Bud's is the only place I can see that sells them, next to the dealer.  Website says $35, but there's a disclaimer that says prices are changing faster than they can update, which might be a red flag.  Any thoughts?

Thanks~

Bud's has had that disclaimer for years.  You can call them for the current price if you're that concerned.
