Default I need 87 S4 oil cooler lines- Anu suggestions?

Hey guys-
I need to replace my two oil cooler lines on the 87 S4. One is leaking pretty badly (the longer one that connects to the top of the cooler by the upper radiator). Anyone have good spares? Looks like 928intnl and 928 spec. do not have these lines.
Wanna get er back up and running quick as I need to replace front brake rotors as well before SITM. How about some good rotors while im at it... anyone?

thanks!

Take your old lines to a hydraulic shop and have them rebuilt. They will replace the hose and use your ends. Quick turnaround and should be good as new.

I'd be very surprised if Jeannie or Jim couldn't get these for you. Do they just not have them listed? Call them with the part number from PET. If you don't have PET, post a picture of exactly what you need and somebody will look up the part number for you.

Brian,
I have plenty of spare lines - however I would take the existing to a local shop and get them replaced like already suggested.
I always have rotors in stock - standard and cross drilled.
Jim and Jeannie do not work weekends I do 8>)
