Brake Line Replacement

[blackpoolsparks]

My brake line sprung a leak today. Just where it passes under the drivers seat. Luckily noticed it before i drove anywhere.
Question is , is this best left to the experts or is it something worth undertaking myself. Where can I obtain brake lines?
Also while I'm at it, I might as well fit the extended brake lines.
Who has that link to the roughtrax part no.?

you do need a couple of special tools to make up a brake line... very easy if you've got them and have a bit of patience...

would probably pay to get it done....

the extended hoses are easy though... just swap the parts and bleed brakes through... mayaswell completely relace the fluid while you're at it

Brake Fluid should be replaced every two years in my opinion. I dont go in for this guff about checking the SG or the boiling point or whatever it is that the garages check. Its best just to change it completely and its not like its expensive. This is even more important if you have ABS

Just read that thread.

Definetly doing it myself now, in the dark, with only a 10mm spanner and a hammer, wearing sunglasses. Then Im gonna drive it round to Andys to see if it stops before i run into his garage door.

Seriously thought, Yoshie said its an inexpensive job and best left to pros.

thanx for everyones comments
