well it finally happened, i learned my lesson about how brakes arent always reliable, especially when the lines are almost 19 years old. long story short, i was following too close, the lady in front of me locked up her brakes, i slammed on mine, went off the side of the road, and blew out a brake line (the right rear)

Any tips to make this easier? i know its a b***h to shape the lines

 

Its not too bad to make ur bends. Takes a few trys to get it down but you will manage. Hope no one got hurt! God bles!!

 

I blew out mine going to work one am. Went on to work, went chevy dealer my brother works at for lunch. He clamped off the back, I made it 3 miles before boom again. It cost about $25 for the line, and had to buy a $20 tool to form the ends. He did the work at his "side shop". Found out the calipers were rusted and we could not break them loose. I had to purchase 3 new calipers, line, tool, and put rear brakes on it while we were there. The truck came from up North and has some rust. That is why the caliper bleeders were rusted so bad, they wouldnt budge at all some broke.
