question on brakes

if you cant find a good line, you could make a patch line by cutting the bad part out, double flaring the ends, and using AN fittings.

okay, those look like what fox mustangs/t-birds/ cougars have. they turn into a soft line when it wraps underneath the frame rail. that line runs all the way to the filter, so its going to be long. when i swapped a 302 into my mustang, i pulled some off another v8 car and zip tied them to my stock lines, until i got home to change them. LOL!

they are held in with rivets on the brackets. you'll need to cut/ drill/ break them off. they will be very long and you dont want to bend them too much. they way i transported them was the most logical way i could think of.

the whole line needs to be replaced. and i would think only fox v8 cars would have a comparable line.

Just get stock replacements and spend your money on some good pads.
