Question, has anyone else had trouble with Inline tube? They do not put part numbers on their tubing, I have a fuel vapor line that is wrong, two piece item, one piece has the correct bends, the 2nd is all wrong, plus it should be 5/16", not 1/4". Their customer service sucks, can't talk to anyone, they encourage email, crickets for the last 3 days.
Had a wrong fuel line 1 year ago, never really got that settled either.
Does someone else do this?
 
Well, that may be a dead end also. Their web site is not the easiest to maneuver, can't even find a vapor recovery line. Will try and see if Inline tube comes through.
Thanks
 
Some good some bad. One set was not bent correctly. Sent it back and they returned it saying there was nothing wrong with it. Another set was good.
 
I've had nothing but perfect results from Inline Tube. I live close. So when I order I say don't coil them up and I get my stuff as 1 long piece. Ask for Chuck. He is the manager of the ordering Dept. He will make it right. They might do minor tweaks. But the end result is actually better. My new line vs my old lines from them in the photos.

Pm me on the lines. I can walk you thru the difference in my photos. My first photo is vapor return line.

Lol, I can tell ya' this. If you purchase their main brake cable in a set or as a single, check the adjustment locknut for high torque before installing it up under the dash!

Because it can be a PITA to install up there :D...........

I did replace the main cable under the dash for the ebrake. No adj there on mine, but the cable was shorter than the original. This car had been modified with rear disc's and did not have enough travel in the intermediate to hook up. Had to get creative in how I solved that problem, made a cable extension from my old cable and making an eyelet on the lathe. Can't send a picture, but it works.
 
That is the cable adjustment at the back end into the equalizer bracket.
 
My adj on the '72 is under the passenger seat. My '69 without the intermediate is at the back on the driver's side.
 
Cruze, sorry to hear about your troubles with Inline tube. Both fuel and brake lines were perfect with my order several years ago. I guess things have changed with their service.
 
The second pic you can see one return line super long and runs towards the brakes lines on the right of the picture. It runs to the filler neck. Cut that line to fit your sending unit as in my first photo. I can't be any more clear. This is a easy fix :)

Yes, my gas line is good. It's the vapor line that is wrong, plus wrong size, 1/4 instead of 5/16. I will get hold of them Monday or Tuesday next week.
Thank you!
 
You're welcome. I truly tried to help. Chuck will get you back in good shape.
 
Taking notes here, so that if I ever think that I want to do this again with another car, I have options!
Thanks again to everyone!

I used inline tube hard brake lines on two vehicles. One was 10 years ago, the second was about 5 years ago and both sets of brake likes fit about perfect.
Maybe they are not as good as they used to be.
 
I just put a set of brake lines on my barracuda from inline and they fit perfect.
 
I got things straightened out at Inline tube today. If you ever have an issue, go to the order the parts choice, there you can talk with someone, preferably Chuck, but anyone can probably help you.
Thanks again to all for your help!
