Has anyone purhased a brake line kit from InlineTube.com? It looks like I can get a full kit for $155 + s/h. That seems like a very small price to pay for the pre-sized / bent lines . . . am I missing something?

My primary question, though, is about the process of replacing the lines. I have never done any brake work before, so I'll be experimenting my way through this project. It seems to me like it's just a matter of ripping the old out and snapping the new in . . is that about right? I don't have any brake modifications, so everything should fit without any trouble, right?

Is this a project I should be able to handle (with basic tools and mechanical abilities??)

Any estimates on amount of time invloved?

What pitfalls should I watch out for?

Thanks!
