Aftermarket Brake Lines

Hey Guys,

 

So I finally replaced the brake lines on my Dodge. I bought them off the web, and went with this stainless steel kit. Some things to note.

 

Website For Brake Lines https://www.sstubes.com/

Website for Body Bolts https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/hillman-hex-body-bolt-5-16-in-18-x-1-in-with-washer-for-gm-ford

 

These guys were awesome, and the lines came out in a big box, and they were fairly close to the oem ones.

WARNING!!!!!!

 

DO NOT! I REPEAT DO NOT! Get rid of this junction block.

 

I made this mistake and found out you cannot get it anywhere. No one makes a repo part!

Here are some photos of the brake lines from them.

The brake line install was fairly painless. If you need to replace the body bolts like I did, they can be found at Tractor Supply Company.

     I'm assuming this us just remove and replace? Looks like quality lines, stainless is always a great idea if you plan on keeping the truck for a long period of time like most of us here.

     This will get put on the list of future upgrades for my truck for sure.

    Completely worth it. I've bought the aluminum "you bend it" bulk brake lines and it's just not worth the trouble unless you have a custom application.

    Great info, I'm thinking of doing this myself as I leave in iowa where salt goes with everything in winter, no shortages of it in sight.
