Default braided clutch line

my slave cylinder is leaking so parts are on the way,but the set up on my 89 now has a braided clutch line. Does any one know were I can buy the same braided hose? All the parts list show a solid pipe with a flexable middle and the price is over $100. Can't find a braided hose.

I bought a real nice braided one from Corvette Central. I think it was around $85.00.

If you have to replace the hose assembly, find a shop that makes custom hydraulic lines and brake hoses. Take them the old hose so they can match up the ends and make the proper length you need.

OEM or OEM-equal hoses are expensive; a custom hose should cost about half of the hoses you see in catalogs.
