Brake line replacement - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

The old farm truck is running, now it is time to make the thing stop. I have non-power, drum brakes all around. The front brakes have decent pressure, but I have not opened any of them up, yet, to see what is going on inside. The rear brakes are gone. The first problem I have to address is a busted front to rear steel line. As far as I know, all of the lines are original. I am considering replacing all of the brake lines with a complete set.

Anyone use one of the catalog sets to replace all of the steel brake lines? Good/bad experiences? Any helpful info about line replacement, before I jump in?
