Suess Posted May 7, 2012 Report Posted May 7, 2012 Since I am replacing all the brake lines. Is there a reason why I cannot use the braided brake lines through out the car? Quote
suntennis Posted May 7, 2012 Report Posted May 7, 2012 Flex lines to do the entire car would be way more expensive than solid lines. Quote
Daliant. Posted May 7, 2012 Report Posted May 7, 2012 Some of those braided brake lines swell a little under pressure, now times that by about 30 feet of line and the pedal might feel a little squishy. I would check with the manufacturer to see how much they swell before buying. Also braided lines need more support than steel lines so dont forget about some kind of mounting tabs to attach the lines the frame. I think it would be easier and cheaper to just run steel hard lines in my opinion. Quote
Suess Posted May 7, 2012 Author Report Posted May 7, 2012 Wow I did not know it was that expensive , scratch that idea. I will just stick to the standard lines. Quote
