jamesStag Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 Hi gary. Servo hose is just standard braided hose from most auto factors. T-body- if you mean the large bore hose from plenum then any of the usual suppliers like rimmers, moss, tr shop, etc will have. No idea on tiger hoses, don't think you can poach tigers anymore...!! :-) Cheers, J. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
graeme Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Gary, I don't think you need tiger hoses, I think they were only fitted to TR5/250. '69 TR6 should have black hoses. Green on later model TR6. Cheers Graeme. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
68tr Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Hi Graeme, Unfortunately the US bound 69 TR6 did have the tiger or bumble bee striped hoses.....They are photographed in the 1969 TR6 US spec brochure. I cannot comment on the 69 PI cars. Not easy to find so most of us just use the available green hoses. Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gary Mac Posted July 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Hi Chaps thanks for the responses Uk spec 69 tr6s did have the yellow and black hoses they changed from 70 onward to black. the servo hose i am after is the one with the yellow stripe down the length of the hose i am trying to obtain the original cotton thread style throttle body hose as my car is an early commission plate i think maybe a few bits were put on from the tr5 tr260 part bins at Triumph i have unfortunatly an OCD problem regarding originallity mad i know regards Gary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andy Moltu Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 The very early 6's dis indeed have the striped hoses. These were also supplied in the "Continental Touring Kit" by Triumph in the late 60s Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Depends on how original (or to original specification) you want it to be? Cheers Andrew Quote Link to post Share on other sites
