Hi Gang,
I am looking to replace my brake lines.
Any experiences with the pre-bent brake line vendors? it seems the reviews are 50/50.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
Craig

I used lines from Shafer's --> http://shafersclassic.com/ . They've been on the car for 1¾ years with no problems.

I have used Fine Lines in Wadsworth, OH. Products have been fine. Stainless lines sometimes require tightening over a period of several days to seal completely. Lines can be picked up at their location if you wish to save shipping costs. Good outfit. Mike L.

Hi Gene! Yes, I have three cars that I used stainless on. I didn't want to deal with the rust potential. Mike L.

Thanks guys,
I was thinking inline tube but got nervous after reading some reviews.
Based on the input from this group I will give them a try
