Wisdom of the list- Steel Flexible Brake Hoses

Dyn Blin
Good evening all.  I've been looking for some pre-made braided steel lines, but can only locate sets for 4WD with lifted suspensions.

Has anyone seen a source for base 4WD?

I've always made my own, but now Earl's and Russell are both part of the evil empire.

I do order 'custom' hoses from a motorsports shop.
They are swaged rather that screwed together, and not any more expensive than off the shelf.

If you want to price them out, here is the list

If you have special/specific clocking needs (say, banjos at each end 90* to each other) be sure to specify this, because unlike screw together fittings there is no adjustment after assembly.

Hope this helps.

This may help Gary as well, since he was unable to source stock length hoses for Big Blue's SAS RSK.
