Re: Disc Brake front brake line size
the front line size is 3/16, and the lines running to the rear are 1/4. I would think that the 79 lines are the same. If you have the old lines, use them as a guide to bend the new lines. There are a bunch of inexpensive benders out there the will help you bend the new lines. Replacement brake lines available from any parts store are seamless thin wall tubing, that will not kink with a gentle bend. IMO you will need a bender to make a 90 degree bend to keep them from kinking. we replace a bunch of lines on late model stuff with out a bender. it will not look exactly like what we removed, but will work. the attention to detail to what you do will be proportionate to the time you put in it
