Hello Dorien,
sadly, I have not found any original steel wheels for my 409, that's why I am adapting Mercedes steel 16x6" rims.
The brake hoses have been checked and replaced in April 2010 when the brake servo collapsed; I'll have then checked again when I shall bring my 409 back to the brake/chassis specialists at Frenatutto.
We have tried many hoses but we didn't find any that could be adapted here in Italy: the one of the first series Range Rover looked perfect....until they tried to refit the power steering belt. Thus I am looking for a new one once again.
Thanks
Stefano
