Kit supplied break lines & fittings

[Bruce N]

What size and material are the kit supplied break lines? Are they pre bent and flared? Assume all fittings are for double flare? What type line clamps are supplied. Just trying to think ahead on things I may want to upgrade.

Brake lines are coated steel, 3/16. Straight tubing in multiple lengths, flared with fittings are supplied that should cover all your needs. Line adapters, braided lines, and cushioned clamps included.

FWIW, i ended up bending and flaring every one of my hard lines, sometimes, more than once.   remaking and rerouting.   Maybe thats just me, the semi-perfectionist.   But I see no way how the hard lines could be pre- bent and flared from Hurricane.  There are just too many variables.     I needed up buying two 20' sections of 3/16" coated steel hardline from Amazon.   I have plenty left over.   

And dont even think of trying to flare stainless steel lines with your ol' cheepy Harbor Freight flair tool.  You need the reeeeeeally expensive one.

LOL, Yea I tried that on my FFR 35 hot rod truck I ended up going with nicopp. It bends and flares super easy and looks nice when polished up. I'll try the supplied lines and if I don't like em I'll go to the nicopp. I have a really nice flare tool from Eastwood that flares perfect every time in about a minute. Have not tried it on the SS though. Great for AN lines also but you have to buy the other head that's about $100.00.

get some brazing rod/wire to mock up the bends and placement with.

Man you and me both! The guy that bought my 35 truck wrecked the front, so been keeping busy repairing and painting the front cowl for him. At least keeps me busy, and I'll charge enough to cover my trip up to Iowa end of July Guess that 560HP was a bit much for him
