brake line replacement help
 

It’s time to replace all the brake lines on my truck in the signature. I was told by a few to NOT go with pre-bent ones since they are quite a bit more money and also very hard to get in place (unless the cab and bed are off the frame)…they said you end up bending them anyway to get them in place, certainly less than ideal. A lot of people also said to use the new copper alloy type line, it is very easy to bend and holds up well. If anyone can offer any advice on any of those items that would be appreciated. Also, if anyone has anyone done this before, I’m wondering what size lines and what type of flare I will need, I didn’t know if it’s a traditional double flair or bubble flair.

i changed my line on the frame rail that goes to the rear brakes a few months ago. took the fuel tank down. took the old line off and pre bent a new one using old one a guide. use double flares

Nickel copper line. Never rots out you can bend it by hand and no need to drop the tank. Its 3/16s line to feed the back. You can bend this stuff in half and it doesnt break. Its 25 dollars for.25 ft roll. Took me a half hour to fix my line going to rear. And yes double flare them

thanks guys...good info here.
