Re: Brake lines

flex or hard lines? If its flex lines get stainless steel ones and if its hard lines the options are either factory pre-bent or bend your own. I need to make one for mine and am going to use nickle plated line that will not rust and is easy to bend.

Re: Brake lines

If your looking for a temp fix that will be in stock at your local parts store, I've used ones from 90's Legacy's to keep me stopping while I was waiting for SS lines to ship.
