Earl's Braided Steel Brake Lines

Fronts don't fit an 85, but they can be modified. End fitting of hose needs to be round, and you can grind it off to fit. I only installed the front hoses (time ran out), but it made a BIG difference. I imagine the rears will help a lot as well. Highly recommend as an upgrade to a poor braking system.

Good to hear. I've got some braided lines ready to go on the rear and I'll do the fronts when I upgrade the brakes. If only I wasn't torn between C5s and C4HDs.
