    Brake Lines

    Looking for a complete set of brake lines, they must be in perfect condition, I bought all new lines from BMW but the don't come preb end, you would have to bend them yourself, I tried on some of the shorter ones, but not coming out the way they should be, let me know what you have willing to drive up to 200 miles for the right ones.
    Thanks Miguel

    Harbor Freight sells tubing benders and flaring kits.
    There are DIY videos.

      I tried already, is difficult to accomplish bending the lines the same as factory, this is a rotisserie restoration and looking for perfection.
      Thanks for the advice

        Where will you find brake lines that are not rusted and discolored?

        You can ask Jordan.
        He'll surely bend new lines for some money.


        You should contact Jordan in any case if you want to restore other parts to perfection too.

        Doesn't any brake shop have equipment to bend lines?
