For those with Hard lines!
 
Are you guys using compression fittings like the ones that can be bought at Lowes high performance or Home Depot Racing? I read an article in Street trucks magazine and they show how you can hard line your truck with copper line, but they use nickel plated push lock fittings from a company called Ekstensive. $$$$$$:confused: I was gonna just use brass compression fittings but the dude at depot told me that they would leak. Is that true? Thanks in advance guys.

They use push on for the tractor trailers. They are sold by most all fitting vendors. You won't have to go to any special company

Well the reason I ask is that we have a wide selection of brass compression fittings here at our shop, ( for big rigs). See, I can get these for free instead of buying the push lock style fittings, considering the compression style will work and not leak.
