Preformed Brake Lines

Does anyone know about the availability of this kind of thing? The dealer can't get it, and I've been told that you'll never be able to get a piece of bulk line bent in the same manner as the factory stuff.

HIGHLY recommend them for SS brake lines. they're the cheapest place you'll find the G-stop lines and I was very impressed with their customer service.

 

These lines replace the rubber/nylon? whatever lines that connect your calipers to your main lines.

The way you phrased it, you're looking for the main lines, however I'm pretty sure there's no such thing as performance hard lines, and you also can't buy full prebent brake lines anywhere for our cars, you'd have to buy straight line and bend them yourself.

Yeah... that's what I was afraid of. I bought a bending tool, but the bend radius on it is like a full inch. Any way to acheive tighter bends without kinking it?

Just copy your old lines. If your turning it tight, make it a longer run to turn. Think of it as 2 circles. 1 big and 1 small. The bigger one will not kink cause its a longer run.

I bent my brake lines for the TGP with out a bender at all. Just go slow and gentle, you'll be fine.
