I'm putting togther a vintage Technic Set 8862 Backhoe. I was about to cut
the hose to length, according to the Bricklink catalog counterparts section,
when I noticed that the lengths of the longer pieces are different in my instuctions.
Why the discrepancy, please? I'm thinking it is better to stick with the
instructions? Thanks.
I think it's better to go with the longer length. If it turns out (after
you build the model) that the hose is too long, you can always cut it shorter.
