Hi i'm new to the TDR and see there is a ton of info here, i have one question.

where can i buy a front to rear brake line. blew mine out today

Hey I blew mine too about 3 months ago. Scary!!! I had to go to autozone and piece one together. I talked to the dealer and all they do is bend a new one out of stock they have to order. It was way cheaper and faster to go to the parts store. You should check all the other lines as well. My truck is fairly clean and all my lines are junk. How do you like your luke's link? All my steering is shot so I figured I would take care of that too.

just get a box of line from the parts store. I believe it is 3/16 line. and two end fittings. bend it to fit and double flare the ends. not really hard to do. im not sure if it is double flare or bubble flare.

just thought i could get a prebent one guess l'll have to make one myself.

as for the luke's link- it works great easy to do and alot cheaper. i've noticed that the frame flexes alot and have seen that other people are also using something else, which i'm not up to par on. can't go wrong with the luike's link, but ask around about the other option before you make your decision.

Just search the forums for DSS Steering Stabilizer. Come to think of it, I have a link in my signature. Also check out the RockSolid Steering column bushing - it is another great improvement, but be VERY careful installing in an automatic truck.

NAPA has a bunch of lines already made up and ready to go. Just select the length you need, bend it to your liking and bolt them on.



I'm not sure if all NAPA's have the lines. The NAPA's down here are pretty big.
