Default Re: Braided Steel Brake lines... Where to Buy!?

And for HDDP i have gotten all my ss brake lines from a locale hose supplier, check your local phone book and look for a industrial hose distributor like parker or parflex you will probably get a better price than going through a auto part distributor. just my 2 cents.
I hear ya, screw DOT approval, lol.

actually I get great deals on Ebay motors for the AN brake lines. also Aerquip Parker are probably the main manufactures for earls, goodrige, and russel fittings too.
