2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Replacing Brake Lines - Any Recommendations?

[twopipes]

I have a new set of SS brake lines that I want to install and flush brake fluid at the same time. (I have a power bleeder. ) It's been years - too many since last flush. Is there anything I should plan for or expect may show it's ugly head?

As long as the bleeders break free you should be good. Where did you get the stainless brake lines?

I purchased them a little longer due to the KORE install.
Sorry I didn't get back sooner.

Like Seane said, be carefull with the bleeders, sometimes they break off if it has been a long time since they were used. I shot mine with Power Blaster every other day for a month before they finally broke loose. I tapped on the head of the bleeder with a hammer while putting moderate pressure on it with a wrench.



Keep us informed on how it goes, I'm curious to see how big of a job it is to install the EGR lines and how well they fit, I may do this install myself. Not that my lines are rusty or corroded, I just don't want any problems down the line. Also, EGR is the only company that I know of that is supplying this pre-bent stainless kit, so I would rather pay now than risk them discontinueing the kit. I plan on keeping my truck a long time and this is a great upgrade.
