Default saff fuel hoses?

I just bought a new bosch fuel pump 941 and filter for my 92 j saff 4x4 but I dont have the old hoses and finishers etc still available. Can anyone tell me what hoses,finishers etc I need for the pump and filter etc...I thought it was 8mm ID but I'm not sure. Would be fitting new braided hoses etc so if anyone knows what I need and maybe best place to buy these parts I would be very chuffed with your help...cheeRS.

The main hose run from rear to front is 7.92mm, 8mm in practice, it's up to you what type of hose you use, I would advise against steel braided, as this stops you being able to inspect the hose itself due to the braid for the tank to pump pipe, which I think is 16mm id.

I bought all my new new hoses and fittings from a company called Pirtek. Take the pump/filter down and they'll find the hoses to match. Also a choice of hoses ie braided, rubber, silicon etc

Hope to get it running at least, the poor things been sat idle for nearly three years and I did'nt have the heart to sell or break it so I'm going for a labour of love and try and get her roaded again.It will take a while to get her in good shape again but i think it will be worth it.Not sure how my wallets gonna cope with it..hehe. Keep u posted on how i get on..cheeRS and oh yeah tabetha i heard some real spooky happenings going on in those undercity tunnels in Edinburger but nothing a good dram won't cure!
