    custom brake lines

    I found someone yesterday who makes custom brakes lines. They made them to my request and specificaly for my Scout (no kludging required). Saved me hours of scrounging through the parts book trying to find an application I would have to modify so it would work.

    From the parts store, OEM lines were 36 bucks at 10", mines were 22 a peice and they made them 25" I'll be ready for the up coming spring over now. Another nice feture is that they are presure tested and if you want them, they can fab them up in SS braid. The other great part is they make them while you wait.

    Just thought I would let you know, Troy these are the guys you need to call.

    I'm interested in hearing again what Landon spent. I thought he said $40 for 4 that were 36". That can't be right. I went yesterday and bought mine and they were ~$30 ea. + tax.

    No, they can probably make an extension to screw on there (with new male and female ends). But once the ends are crimped on, they cannot be reused.

    they can reuse your old ones, but they charge for brazing the new ends on ($$$$$) something like $45 each time, so i just got extensions
