Just received my 2nd identical replacement Red brake hose in the mail from FFR. Does that mean I should expect a 2nd kit coming soon?

I have 3 of their reservoirs; rec'd 1 red hose, then a few days later two more. That's on top of the 3 initial black Gates replacements the week before. So, I've changed the reservoir hoses twice in the last month. Anyone know exactly what the issue was with the original 2 hose types sent out?

I believe the first one (original) was for fuel not brake fluid then I thought the second one was correct and low and behold a third one came and its red. I assume that's it unless we get a green one next week. I not using the red hose if anyone should need an extra let me know.

I also got two red ones about a week apart and a couple of black ones. I thinking the red ones are not going to be used cause I'm going to eliminate their need. I'll use the braided flex if I have to.

I just got one red hose for the brake reservoir apparently.

I was skeptical to use the red brake hose as I was tired of replacing brake hose with what FFR sent me. I decided I would do my own research this time before I went to the trouble and mess of changing them again. I am convinced this is the correct hose this time. The Gates Adaptaflex hose is lined with EPDM which is the industry standard for brake fluid explosed seals and hoses. Stacked33

Thanks st33, good to know I won't have to change the hoses again.
