[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 439690, member: 18789"] [HEADING=1]Brake Lines & Hoses[/HEADING] [HEADING=3]Stainless Lines[/HEADING] I bought a full vehicle brake line kit a few months ago from Inline Tube. I actually did all new stainless brake lines from Classic Tube in 2015, and the fit on that kit was not great. Almost all of it was too long which made cramming hard lines into place quite difficult. I decided I wanted to refresh that stuff again and I had read a bunch of great reviews about Inline Tube, so I decided to try them over Classic. The fitment was [I]significantly[/I] better than what I used before. Pretty much every line fit perfectly with no extra work. Of course, there will always be some dangling as you try to snake a preformed line into its home between other lines. It’s not exactly easy, but wasn’t too bad. One thing really nice about the kit was the long lines (passenger front, and the rear that runs down the frame) are broken into two pieces and they provide couplers to join the halves together. This makes getting a long line into place much easier because you only have half the length to deal with. I also added to my order the 3/16” fuel vapor line. When I was removing the lines in 2015 to install the Classic kit, I cut the rear line for easier removal. Unfortunately, I accidentally cut the vapor line instead. I patched it back together with hose and clamps but it looked tacky and I got fuel smells at times. Always bothered me. I installed that now and all is well. Glad to have that fixed and it also fit like a champ. [ATTACH]121925[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]121926[/ATTACH] I’ll add a photo of the rear axle lines once I have the axle project done and installed.
