Thanks Jay!

 

[driffter33]

You guys are welcome.


These guys do a lot of very highquality custom hose for everything Hummer air systems, all off road evolutions custom hoses. They are very willing to work with you. But it helps when you know what you want. Tell them what you want and they will get it,

If I was to order some would it be worth while to add an extra 1inch to the length of my lines if I'm lifted 3inchs?

 

[driffter33]

Tomorro we will be installing these on brads runner witch is liffted 3". Will post pics for morw info on fitment. These are allready 1" longer than factory.

ooh! those look nice, and right around the same price as stoptech. do they offer any types of colors or options? links/info??? :girl:

 

[97FR_brad]

I'm sure Jay can answer better, but the quick answer is they custom make each order. Sounds like some colors are available. The contact info for the shop is on the invoice in the upper left corner of the page of the first post.

Here is their info from that invoice.

How do they feel compared to stock? i never notice the difference with steel braided brake lines on cars. I only noticed a huge difference on my motorcycle.

 

[97FR_brad]

I'm not really sure you could tell any difference by replacing SS hoses only.

The front brakes were upgraded to the Tundra 231s. So the lines were an added bonus to throw in with the rest of the new system.

Since I was upgrading the other parts why not replace the hoses also. I did have a stock 12 year old rubber hose rupture after lifting my truck.

Now I would really like to have some steel lines on my Suzuki 500...that would be fun for the twisty roads around here.

So why is this better than Stoptech SS lines?

 

[Mellow77]

These look great and they bring an idea to mind. If you had a set of lines made to re-route for clearance could you then run tire chains up front while in the snow/ice?

Currently I know chains would chew up the brake lines pretty quickly. Is it just the rubber hose that's in the way or is there more to it?

Thanks for the info. I talked to them today, I'm gonna order my break line tomorrow. They seem like a gret bunch of guys, and there turn around time is 1day.

[infamousRNR]

does anyone know how these would compare to toytec's or wheeler off road's SS brake lines?

these are 1" longer... are the other ones? they don't say extended

 

[Scramble]

So here they are!

Very nice! I'd like these with Blue inserts instead of Green.

Re

I just a local shop make my SS extended brake lines. I just had to tell them all the information about which parts needed to make these. They turned out nice.
