Replacement brake lines

I need to get a set of replacement brake lines for my '56, and I'd like to find some good quality pre-bent ones that are as close to stock originals as possible. Even down to the cloth covering if available. Does anybody have any recommendations? I'm sure several of you have put all new lines on early '5's.

Thanks!

 

Just FYI, the "S" lines on the front knuckles I got from Krage and 4WD Hardware required some further bending. All from them has worked, but just sucks that the angles don't line up. HTH

 

Try these guys. I'm told they are the best. From the Home page click catalog requests, then click the catalog icon. Scroll down to Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth, Jeep, you'll find them there. I think you can get the cloth wrap too.http://www.inlinetube.com/

 

how about for later ones, with the 'wire' wound around the line?

was this wire wrap used to protect the line from rubbing when running inside the frame or for heat 'protection'?

 

Thanks Rocky! Since I'll be putting on 11" brakes and Herm's dual m/c kit, I'll have to eliminate the "S" lines on the front knuckles for some flexible hoses and rework the lines off the m/c, but I'm mostly concerned with the steel lines on the axles and how well they'll fit.

 

Anybody else? I'm sure a lot of you have bought brake lines.

 

i put on a set of SS lines from Krage, correct wire wrap, correct cloth cover where needed, most fit with no mods. 2 needed some revending, able to do with my hands, 1 came with the wrong fittings on it, and there was one line in the kit that did not go anywhere on my jeep:?

overall, not as much work as I expected on a 36 year old vehicle, but some thought and enginuity required. and boy do they add bling

 

My 59 did not have the original "S" landing plates inboard of the 9" drums, but used longer flex lines directly to the slave cylinders. I mimiced the original chassis lines from stock NAPA brake line (only needed one male to male splice for the long one).

Still a work in progress.

 

Does anyone know the parts # for the set. or years new lines are for when appyling them to early cj with 11 in. or disc upgrade

 

yea my 55' is the same way for some reason. i bought my lines from walcks, oh how i love living 15 minutes from walcks

 

You live 15 min. from Walck's? That ain't right. They oughta be able to find you a tub.

 

ha yea, i told him to keep his eye out for me. he has a bunch of jeeps around the shops mainly flatfenders. all the cj5s are rusted beyond recognition. im gunna have to take a road trip to NC soon no rust!

 

Bought mine from Walcks.

 

Happy with 'em?
