So I'm ready for new brake lines on the Spacer. I usually make em myself as needed,...but I was kinda hoping to get pre bent, maybe stainless,...(not that my work is ugly, mind you),...Thoughts???...Pros???,...Cons???
 
stainless is gonna be alot more expensive... with no gain... just stick with stock steel pre-bent ones... not sure who the boss uses but they are spot on every time...
 
We like "spot on",...there's enough work as It Is to put em in...see if ya can find out what he uses,...thanx
 
Inline tube or finelines. Both good. Who ever is cheaper is the way I would go.
I usually go with steel lines.
 
I went with fine lines. They went right on and looked perfect. I used the standard steel and shot them with clear before bolting them in place. I did have to modify my rear line for my proportioning valve. Standard steel is easier to flare. Stainless it way too hard for our cheap flare tools.

Hey rob, I'm guessing you had to reflare just the one for the prop valve you mentioned?

Hey guys, did these kits include rubber fronts as well?
 
I used inline once & I had to modify every bend at the prop valve. I bought from finelines twice & never had an issue & I upgraded to stainless
 
I used fine lines. Went with std steel lines and they went in just the old lines. They have clips if you need those also. I used wheel cyls. rubber lines and new bleeders from napa (alittle cheaper price and saves on shipping). If you need prop. valves or blocks inline tube has the best price compared to year one or classic ind.
