our stock brake lines are rubber. The Rubber hose flexes slightly when the brake pedal is pushed, making the brake fluid travel slower to the piston. Switching to steel brake lines eliminates the flexing, and vastly increases your braking speed...

also rubber hoses tend to rip and crack. you won't see that on steel brake lines.

now get on the GB!! tongue.gif

Do these brake lines really make a difference, if so... how?

Also you said they are PVC coated, so that they <u>WONT</u> rust, right??

Any special tool needed to do the job, & do we have a DIY posted for brake lines (if not will you do one with these?)</div>

the braiding around them keeps them from flexing out....

they are coated, pretty damn nicely i must say. i dont think they will ever rust.

read my above post.

 

It's stainless steel.

From what I know of Stainless, it doesn't rust.

Hence the name.

Also, it's covered in plastic.

You'd have to drive thru some acid to melt the plastic, then ... Hell, I have no clue.

I've got a set from the first GB. They are VERY nice.

 

okay put me down for probable's list man. As long as somebody does a DIY...

 

JalemX, if you also read the other linked threads that I mentioned, you'll see answers for most of your questions. They make a HUGE difference in braking.

 

you have to bleed your brake lines first, then put the new lines on, then add new brake fluid? correct?

put me for a probables list.

 

Webtech has the proper bleeding procedure.

 

I'm in, will pay in 2 weeks smile.gif missed this last time, was hoping someone would redo this smile.gif

no, bleeding is the process of getting all the air outta the lines. when you first take off the brake line(at the caliper), be sure to have a little tupper ware container to catch the brake fluid that leaks out. then once all the brake lines are off, you put the new ones on. you then will have to fill the master cylinder with brake fluid(making sure there is plenty kept in it the whole time you bleed). then you just get all the brake fluid from the MC to the calipers by bleeding, untill there is no air left in the lines.

thats a little summary, details will be in the DIY. wink.gif
