Stainless Steel Braided Brake Lines

Featured Replies

Morning all my question is above really i bought a set of the brake lines a while ago went to get them fitted and was told it would be 200, 45 for each wheel then 20 for brake fluid is it worth doing it for 200? I know the gains are small right ??

Would it make that much of a difference??

Ok ill see about having a bash at it what can go wrong lol

Apart from the visual impact, the braided hoses aren't any more efficient than the ordinary ones. As for £200 for fitting them, that's way over the top. Should take about 5 minutes per wheel to replace the hoses. A quick bleed maybe a flush if the system hasn't been done for a couple of years. Work takes about an hour on a garage ramp, I'd pay no more than Beccacat paid, if I were giving it to a local garage to do.

Personally, the job is a piece of cake, as long as you bleed the system carefully, you can do it in a couple of hours on the drive, jacking up each side as you go.
