Re: Brake lines

i used the auto parts ones as PGSigns posted. just get some brass inverted flair unions to put the lengths together. be careful if using a flaring tool as it's hard to make a good double flair on steel tube. The copper-nickle tube is easier to flair than steel. just try to get the length's to fit. you can add a few coils (bend it around a 2" pipe) to shorten if needed. I bought a hyd. flaring tool years ago when building a few hot-rods (not my own) you don't want a line to brake--good luck.
