I have these installed and can feel a firmer brake. I did this for two reasons: (1) update the 20 year old lines and (2) get a firmer brake.

For some reason, I have a "soft spot" in the middle of my braking. Firm on the start of the pedal push, soft in the middle and firm at the end. (I had this before the StopTech's). I have bled these brake at least 15 times and still have this weird mushy spot in the middle of a full brake thrust. Anyone know what causes this?

When I did mine a few days ago some air found it's way up to the abs motor...it would bleed on a few pumps, drive it and get weak then do it again...had my son pushing the pedal...I had to dig out my old brake bleeder to get it to break free and bleed out...not sure if you have one but it worked in about 5 minutes for both sides...it's a hose that plugs onto the bleeder then goes into a bottle that pushes the fluid out then sucks it back in when you move the pedal...I can't remember what tool guy I got it from and it's not marked to get a number off...I'll do a quick search and see if I can find it.

Found it...not sure if I'd buy it from this seller...never used them before but this is the KD tool 3982 that I use...have had it for probably 15 years...I like it since it's not vacuum it won't pull air into the system like my shop air vacuum tool does really bad...it works so good that I don't need anyone else to bleed brakes.

Web site doesn't say or have option, Tech service not open today.

Wheelers has them, which I have used they are SS braided extended performed well. Price not bad.
ToyTec has them along with crazy price and shipping.
same size as stock from what i recall. make sure to change out front and rears to ss i only changed the front and i get pull when i brake.(im assuming its that)

Thanks,
Yea I don't like opening brake system any more than I have to. Rear axle I'm putting in soon will be dry, front diff swap happening same time.
Perfect time to change all four lines flush system. Had wheeler's lines on 96Red for 150k mi looked new, guess I'll go with what's worked.

Anyone know the stop tech part number for rear stainless brake lines? There are a left/right that run along the rear axel. One of mine is leaking.

I have 199mm upgrade on my 99 4runner. Need to replace front and rear brake lines with stoptech stainless.


Front is 950.44014???
Rear ??


Any feedback is greatly appreciated

I thought only the 2001-2002 came with the two rear lines. And that the 1996-2000 came with one line on the pumpkin.


Or are you referring to the hard lines?

Yes, Im referring to the hard lines that run left and right from the center connection to each drum.

Thanks

I believe stoptech only sells replacements for the soft rubber lines: Automotive and Truck Search | APC Automotive Technologies
