well yesterday sucked cause i was going to work i blown out my brake line. at about 8 pm last night after my work shift i finally had a chance to look at the line. And what i found was not good the steel line that runs along the frame blew out from rusting. So now i need to remove that dam thing which is going to be a party in a half. Now my question is would u guys replace it with another steel line or go with a teflon steel braided hose ??

 

Replace it with the hard steel line.

 

ok well i know a place that can make it in SS but they not open till monday.

 

Hard steel line, They are cheap and take at least 10 years to rust out again. I put all new ones on my truck after mine blew and 2 years later still no rust has formed on them. That is in the mtns of pa where they salt the crap out of the roads all the time.

 

My brake lines look aluminum to me could they be or do they just look like aluminum?

The connection blocks look aluminum also.

1998 Dakota

 

be sure to use anti-seize compound on the tubing line nut. 25 years later you will be glade you did. al ? never heard that, but could be. i think if it was on my truck i would be praying a lot. could it be cad plating? the color of cad is like al.

 

trust me...they just LOOK aluminum...lol

 

well the blocks are aluminum is that normal or strange?

 

The "blocks" are aluminum, that's normal. Aluminum would be too soft to make brake lines out of though.

 

Ok fine with me
