Brake line kit.
Does anyone have a company which they have used to order the entire hardline kit for there trucks. I upgraded to a disk brake front on my 69 burban and all the hardlines has broken and I'm ready to purchase a lot but don't know where to purchase from.

Re: Brake line kit.
I've had pretty good luck with inline tube stainless but if you're going to use oem it's a lot cheaper and pretty easy just to make it yourself with a good flaring tool.

Re: Brake line kit.
I too would like to know of some good front lines. It's all I have left for lines on my truck and I HATE faring lines. Constant issues for me. I don't want to spend the big dollars on a good flaring tool...

Re: Brake line kit.
I bought my front brake line kit from LMC. Complete set and reasonably priced. very few issues putting them on. A little tweaking here and there, but nothing major. it also helps they're 30 minutes from me

Re: Brake line kit.
Most of the vendors sell them but I think a lot of them just drop ship them from Inline Tube. I've ordered them from Classic Parts and Gmc Paul's in the past and they both came in Inline Tube boxes.

Re: Brake line kit.
ditto on LMC kit. I had to tweak the front lines a little, but other than that, fell into place pretty easily, and you get the master cylinder to equalization valve lines also.

Re: Brake line kit.
I got a Craftsman flaring kit for about $100.00. I haven't used it though.

Re: Brake line kit.
if someone wants to chime in where to find lines to the rear brakes for a D60 rear end on a K2500, I'm all eyes and ears

Re: Brake line kit.

Re: Brake line kit.
I've had good luck with inline tube also. Make sure to tell them you've converted to front disks (if you were 70 or earlier), this normally requires different size lines front/back. It will work with the stock 1/4" all the way around, but not necessarily as designed by mother GM. Since you're buying all new, recommend go with the proper sizes.
