Looking for sources for two parts

Where can I go about buying steel braided transmission line? I hate the way my stock hardlines are bent up after my swap and I would like to change them. I searched and found some posts about having steel braided line but none actually telling where they got it.

Also where can I get a "new style" kickdown cable? I am looking for the ones that are supposedly exactly like a 700r4's TV cable but made for the th350's kickdown.

TIA

for the braided cable try anyplace the sells preformance parts, liek jegs or summit, or even the makers like aeroquip, if that doesn't work you can try just about every hydrolic shop in the country. how hard did you look for it? not sure what a "new style" kick down cable is ,but i'd look again at the preformace outlets, or the transmission makers.

I checked Jeg's and Summit but I wasn't sure if the braided fuel line is the same? Because I didn't see any that say they are specifically for transmissions.

I have never personally seen the "new style" kickdown cables. Just saw posts on here mentioning them.

You can use any fuel-resistant hose, there's nothing special about transmission fluid you need to worry about. I use Aeroquip AQP hose.
