Speedway Motors 6178558 Details

These steel braided front brake lines are 17" overall length. They are for common 1978-1988 GM metric style calipers and include 10mm x 1.5 banjo fittings for one end and have 3/8"-24 inverted flare female on the other. Stainless steel braid significantly reduces hose expansion under pressure, which results in a firmer pedal feel versus rubber hoses.

Customers praise this product for its top-notch quality and practicality, particularly noted in applications like disc brake conversions on various vehicles. It's especially suited for adjustments, with extra length providing abundant travel to turn wheels. The product's materials are high-grade, featuring fine braided hoses that are well-fitted and visually appealing.

Solved a big problem

We are putting a disc brake conversion on a 1961 Chevy impala and these lines with their extra length helped us hook up the front brakes and still have an abundance of travel to turn the front wheels.
