brake lines

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: Jibit

anyone know where I can get braided lines? I looking for them on the front. I suppose there are lots of places that I can get them but I don't know the length or anything. Also, I was told that if I upgraded the rear brakes to 13" that I would need to get another line for the e-brake cause the original won't fit. Any suggestions on this?

Try Summit, Jegs, or JC Whitney.

Go to SCCoA and look for the SS brake line buy thread. Should be in the clasified area as a sticky...

You will only need to change the e-brake cables under the following conditions:

1. Your existing one will not reach the calipers in their new location (unlikely)
2. You change your rear calipers, and the new ones attach to the cables differently

When I switched from stock rear brakes on my 94 Mustang to 13" rears with Camaro calipers, I had to switch the cables because they attached differently.

As far as braided lines go, you would just need a steel braided nylon hi-pressure hose with the correct fittings on both ends.
