Well the metal brake line that goes alone the frame rail is rusted and my brake fluid leaked out. Im just wondering how you guys do this. Do you bend your own line or can i buy one thats already made for my rig? I have a 98 xj and if I can buy one thats a perfect fit that be great as its freezing outside so I dont wana mess around with it. Thanks guys!

You might be able to find a pretty bent line but it's going to be expensive. Bending the line isn't hard. Carefully take out the old line and you could make all the bends in your house then go out and install.

I bought pre-bent rear axle lines two months ago from a company called Fine Lines and was impressed with the quality.

The previous owner of my 97 XJ replaced the line going from the master cylinder to the rear with one he bent himself. The install looked terrible. My fuel tank vent line that runs along side the brake line was badly corroded, so this past weekend I ordered both the rear brake line and the tank vent line.

The price was $50 each from Fine Lines. They are offering free shipping through the end of the year on orders over $99 if you use the promo code HAPPY HOLIDAYS.

Right, but if I do it myself I also need some tools to double flare it. But I found this on fine lines http://www.finelinesinc.com/win9141 I think thats the one I need right? Its the front to rear brake lines and they follow the frame rail.

Yeah, that's the line that runs from the combination valve near the master cylinder along the frame rail to the rubber hose near the rear axle. I ordered one this past weekend.

I haven't received it yet, but it was shipped today, the first business day after I ordered it.

I wasn't aware of the Fine Lines place. Thanks for the link !

I bend my own lines most of the time, but have bought some from inlinetube.com for Chevy stuff. Don't think they have Jeep stuff though.
