Stainless Steel Brake Lines

A portion of the "spongy" feel of brake pedals can be attributed to expansion of the rubber flex brake lines. As brake system pressure increases, the lines expand, letting the pedal travel more. These stainless line kits prevent expansion, thereby giving a much firmer feeling pedal. They also do not deteriorate with age. These lines do not have Dept. of Transportation (D.O.T.) approval, and are therefore for RACING purposes only. They are not approved for highway use.

Note: These should be installed by an experienced (and intelligent) mechanic, which may be hard to find. The brake system must be completely bled to remove all air. However, a very critical step is the positioning of the lines to prevent "kinking", and any stress on the fittings. The lines are stiff, and are very capable of breaking a fitting if installed wrong. They also can easily wear into a tire if positioned such that they contact one. BE CAREFUL!
