    Unhappy Brake line replacement

     



    I am at the time in my project to run brakelines. Can anyone recommend what size lines to use on my car? It is a 57 chevy with a 12 bolt rear with drum brakes. Up front I installed disk brakes. This is my first day and first post on this site but from looking at the other forums and discussions I think I will be here for a while........Glad I found it.

    Here's a good article that will probably tell you more than you wanted to know. Though it's not specific to your car, it's applicable to nearly all systems for rods. There's a typo, it should read 3/16 for the tubing size. http://www.chtopping.com/rodder.html

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
