stainless brake lines interest

[tlr]

I talked to a race shop today that can make brake lines to replace all 5 rubber lines with braided stainless. Would anyone here be interested in a set? Currently looking at a set for my gen 2.5 I've also read it will eliminate the pulsing from the abs.

Thanks

Yes, any estimate on cost?

Well I was told for 10 or more $165 for each set.

Can be built from components (Summit) for about $100 for the set.

The Parker store builds them for about $1 per foot of line and $5 per end, they are better than steel braided automotive lines they have a wrap around the steel to make it tougher and handle higher pressures. MSHA grade essentially

Did you have a set made?

I built mine from Summit purchased components (Russell) for my '88 - which are not much different than Gen 2 / 2.5.

I followed essentially this post but replaced the rear Earls line with one from Russell

They made all my high pressure oil lines with hard to find banjo's and Japanese imperial metric fittings for my turbo and vacuum pump. I asked about brake lines when i was there and the guy said it'll be about the same price as maybe less than the stuff they made me for my engine.

Could you get some definite numbers put together? I'm sure there is demand for a complete set, especially for those with lifts and bigger tires.

Well I'll be going down there in a week or two to get my lines done and reply here with prices and possibly part number if they supply them. I do have a favor to ask, anyone with a gen2/2.5 that's interested to please check you lines and post here. I have female to female front, female to female rear center and female to male outside rear. All should be m10x 1.0 inverted flare. Now the issue is that a lot of the parts stores list all sorts of combinations for our trucks so I would like to check this.
Thanks
