Brake Lines?

[Zeus51]

Hey guys,

Has anyone used Classic Tubes for their stainless steel brake line replacements? If you did and you have the M1008, what kit number did you order?

For what it is worth...

I used classic tube for my Mustang. It took a huge amount of time to fit the new lines. Keep your old ones once they are removed. Set the “close enough” ones from Classic Tube next to them and start tweaking them to match the old OEM ones. That will get them close... Also the stainless ones are less friendly to work with, you might consider plain steel or nickel copper

Thanks Chaski!

Cupro-nickel. All the way. More corrosion resistant than stainless steel, easier to work with than plain steel.

I did but it was over ten years ago. Maybe closer to twenty. It was a pain in the butt though ! They are hard to bend and they all get bent up in shipping. The long lines are doubled over to fit into the box. Like Marcus said "cupro-nickel" is better. I used that on my deuce.
