Brake lines
 

Where is the best place to get pre-formed brake lines?

Have you tried LMC yet?

If you are not doing them all most parts houses have an assortment of lines made up of varying lengths.

If doing them all it would be nice to get a complete set but then trying to hook up lines to non stock dual cylinders of varying origins might muddle things up a bit.

For the price of a pre-bent set, you can buy a really nice hydraulic flaring tool and a coil of tubing...

This is the one I have. :)

this is all you need plus a tubing cutter which are not that expensive. you will need the right size double flare bit which is that little black round thing at the top. this one I have had for over 50 years

I used Ron's style of flaring tool for years. Once I tried this... never, ever again. They're inexpensive now.

I must admit the old one does take some practice to get use to using it, but it does the job and was not made in China. if you were doing them everyday then there are more than likely more efficient ones out there. for the money how often are you going to use it and that new kit is also for metric and other uses which you may never use.
there is only a 30/30 warranty on it also. I see that the dies also do not hold up for long on stainless.
here is a selection
