Braided brake lines

Who's got good kits. I want to get new lines/hoses, not sure who to go with or who is the best brand. Thanks for any help.

i'd like to know this as well, I hear Earl's is the best company to deal with for our cars. I need new lines as well and was thinking of springing the extra few bucks for quality aftermarket stuff.

how much is the kit to do brake lines all around? anyone?

I have Earl's on all of my cars. Try their Solo-bleed's also, they're great (under $10 a pair). Stay away from Russell's speed bleeder, they will not function properly after just a few uses. They rely on teflon threads that wear and then suck air, Earl's are spring loaded before the fluid gets to the threads. Line kits are aprox. $100, depends on apllication.

If you want new lines and not just hoses, check out Inline Tube and Fine Lines brake line companies. They offer custom new lines for our cars in standard tubing and stainless steel.

Contact :hail: ANDYZ28, I think he will have anything you need, and he deals exclusively with Earl's too (the best on the market!!)

I've dealt with him a couple of times already and have been SUPER-pleased with his parts and customer service!!

2 thumbs up!!
