What about brake lines

Country flag
Offline
Thought I'd try a poll:
 
No takers on the gravel?
 
i think line type explanations are in order....
benefits, etc ....whats a cunifer, for example.....z
 
Cunifer is seamless, copper nickel alloy DOT approved brake line used for OEM and replacement brake lines, fuel lines, power steering and cooling lines.
Corrosion proof and easy to install high pressure hydraulic tubing for the harshest environments.

now change my response from steel to cunifer.

thanks, :wink:

I went with the Cunifer lines via Federal Hill Trading Company when I redid the plumbing on my Bugeye. However, I also installed a set of Goodridge stainless steel brake lines to the calipers.

My biggest cosmetic issue with cunifer is that you can't easily make it straight.

You probably already know this trick, but...

You can put the end of the tube roll in a seam in your driveway pad, and use your feet to slowly straighten the tube.

Of course, it will never be as pretty as pre-bent.

What the heck is Gravel pit.

If you gravel pit doesn't stop you there is usually a concrete wall next in line...lol. I've been on a team that refurbed an old Mack truck that used the gravel pit coming down Mount Eagle in Tennessee. That was a mess.

BTW, I vote for the cunifer. Stainless is heck to work with unless you have the right tools.

Trevor beat me...lol
 
Ha, the guy he was trying to pass was all over the place. Sometimes it pays to just set back a bit.
