one more brake line question

What to you recommend for brake lines when having a modified frame and crossmember?

My front crossmember is sectioned and I have a custom backhalf. I want to run all new lines. Inline tube has universal street rod kits. Do you think that would be a good option?

Inlines street rod kit looks good, i think some make bending/flaring seem harder than it really is, besides brake line is cheap heck 6' of stainless line is 17.70 on inlines website. Also you can always make a template from cheap line at your local parts store probably cost you about 20 bucks.

I think it's all about having the right tools - spend the money and get you a good tubing bender, and then splurge on a one of the good flaring tools like Rokcrln posted in his Low Buk thread....then you can make it look nice.
