Brake Line Kit

Are there any differences between 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton non-power brake lines? I've searched this site and not really found a good answer. LMC sells a kit but they only list for 1/2 ton, and when I called to ask they had no way of knowing that information.

Anyone know the answer?

Thanks,

Aaron

Re: Brake Line Kit

I have only played with heavy half's and 1 tons but i think the 3/4 tons are the same as the 1/2 tons. I am sure that that one of the members with more experience will chime in.
All I can say is for god sake don't order the line kit from summit.

Re: Brake Line Kit

Thanks for the advice guys. It appears other vendors show different part numbers between 1/2 and 3/4 ton so there must be a difference. I'll look at other places for the kit.

Re: Brake Line Kit

LOL... I've used nothing but Inline Tube for brake lines, fuel lines, mounting clips, and fittings and have had great success with their products.

I guess I'm just lucky.

Re: Brake Line Kit

If you arent set on a pre-bent set, I got a kit from amazon that I had really good luck with. cheap too and included all the fittings.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Also, I once sold inline tube and I had good feedback. Every once in a while you'll get a mistake or something but thats any large company. . they were good about correcting it.
