Installed 4/6 ss brake lines...(question)

[jajou318]

Alright a friend of mine and I finished installed ATE power slot front and blanks in the rear.

But my question concerns with the SS brake lines we installed.

The fronts were easy. The rear (first ones were easy).
But the one that goes deep by the subframe wasn't so easy. We decided not to waste our time with those two.

Question:
Will having 4/6 ss lines put more strain on that rubber one? I don't want to purchase a line wrench just to this job.

Thanks,
Tony

I don't think the combontation of the two would do anything. Brake line expansion does occuor, but at such a small amount that you won't stress the lines any.

But come on, man up and get the others done. It's not impossible.

Just do it. You should not be half-assing jobs when it comes to your car, especially the brake system. It didn't take me any longer than 10 min per side.

Well my front one stripped. and in the rear one started stripping. So I guess I chickened out. :-\

If you dont you will regret it, mark my words.

it wont hurt anything, but you won't see much of a benefit until you replace all of them. removing the exhaust makes it easier, but that depends on how rusty your car is underneath..
