Getting stainless lines made up - who wants some?
I'm figuring out what to do with my brake lines, and it looks like there are a few vendors that sell CNC-bent brake lines as perfect as the originals they were sent for $150 in tin-coated steel or $180 in stainless. Fuel lines are available too.
I imagine I'll send in my 77 brake lines, have them scanned, and get a set bent. If anyone wants to get this set, I'd recommend that they order soon before they lose the data. I doubt the REPU is mainstream enough that they'd advertize it or keep it around otherwise.
Good news for the 77 is that the front-rear brake line has a coupling nut just behind the cab. Anyone with an earlier truck could buy a set bent to my truck, cut 3 inches or so out of the main line where the coupling is, and have themselves a perfect set.
I'm still not sure which vendor I'll go with, but I expect that I'll do it soon. If you have any imput on the smart way to go, or if you want to be in on the semi-group-buy, speak up.
Available would be:
Master Front to L Caliper
Master Front to Distro Block
Master Rear to Disto Block
Distro Block to R Caliper
Distro Block to Rear Union (back of cab)
Rear Union to Axle soft line
Left Drum to Tee
Right Drum to Tee
for a total of 8 brake lines.
Also there's:
Fuel Supply
Fuel Return
Fuel Breather
I'm not sure if I'll do the fuel lines, but I'll be happy to send them in for scanning if someone else wants to order one. It won't cost any extra shipping to do it - just extra risk that they'd get lost or busted.
