Title: Extended Brake Lines
Post by: yellowjeep101 on October 05, 2011, 06:49:49 PM

I'm sure this has been covered in a topic already, but being my phone won't let me search (yes my phone), I'm wondering where I can get some extended brake lines made? Thanks for any suggestions.

If you don't need stainless you can swap stock Chevy lines on front for about 4". Readily available and cheaper.

I would have to look in shop for part numbers I used but I originally got info from a link like this one

Modern usually has Stainless braided extended lines in stock unlike National which seems to have no stock and everything has to be ordered and is always 3 weeks away.

Oddly enough, national had them in stock. Fantastic! Thanks everyone for the speedy replies.

I bought the skyjacker stainless steel off the shelf from national. Of course it was easy to install  and no wait
