Well I got a small leak in my master cylinder and while replacing it twisted off the hardline for my front brakes... and now it turns out ALL of my hardlines are shot!

Where can I find all the parts to put this shit back together? Is there any place i can affordably get the majority of the hardlines allready assembled with proper fittings? i hate flaring lines and that will just add more cost to a project that has allready blown my budget

well, in the grand scheme of things, its not too too badly priced.

for some reason the 79f150 4x4 page isn't working right now, but it's there.

$155 for the 2wd set.

You can get the generic lines for about $20 and the double flare tool is $25.

parts houses sell pre made up lines for fairly cheap. You could buy 4" legnths and use couplings to cobble them together. THey have the adapters you need too. Personally, I would buy brake line in bulk, learn how to do a good double flare, and re-use what fittings were salvageable, and buy the rest new.

if i was you id just flare the lines, any local shop should carry the 4' sections with the ends already on them all you gotta do is bend it, thats what i did for my whole truck and it only cost me $15 without a prop. just my .02

I konw that you can get the whole front hard line setup for a 44 for sure. I got mine from Monumebnt Autoparts several years ago.

You will be miles ahead, and dollars in your pocket ahead, if you buy the tools and make the lines. Go to AFCO racing for all your hose needs, they have hard line too.

Look at

Auto Krafters

LMC

and maybe Dennis Carpenter

The most economical way, like it has been said, is to get the lines at a local auto parts store and bend/flare them yourself.

You could also call around these stores for your Prop. valve. I don't know if these stores carry them or not, but I found a new/reman. whatever one from Napa for <$100 a few years ago. It even came with the tool used to pull out the pen to properly bleed it...
