When ever you get a chance! I talked to my hosers today and they told me "Simon we will build you custom braided lines,if you want"

They are still more money than yours close to double!

 

[SIKDMAX]

Heres some pics and info.

Here is the new bolts, crush washers and clips:

Here are the front lines. Length end to center of eye: 32"

Rears. 17.75"

Rear Splitter. 22.25"

Note on the box: Goodridge brake lines are manufactured 3/4" longer than stock lines. Will post pics tomorrow when installed.

Cool!!

Aaaaaaaand.... they didnt work. Seems that the fitting from the hardlines used on at least the LMM are different. Anyone have any idea where I could get new fittings pictured here? It threads on to the brake line, and connects to the stock truck hard line.

It occurs at this connection:

Go to the local hose shop, it's nothing special. My Guy in Orange grabbed them right off the shelf.

IMO- I would make them 2" longer (or more) than stock. You'll be glad... The bradied lines don't move/flex the same as the stockers, they require a little more arch. As well you'll need to watch carefully when you take the caliper off, there is some sort of sensor on the hub and it'll rub on the disc. The same "sleeve bracket" that holds this sensor in place holds the brake line and if the brake line isn't clamped in the right place when you turn the wheels it will pull on the new brake line at the frame attachment point.

Hope this helps. BTW- nice to read you guys again:hug:, Jamaica was well... perfect!!

 

[SIKDMAX]

Tucson... thanks very much! You think that will be a different fitting then the one that I have now?

Anyone here? The fitting is:

AEROQUIP FCM2936 3 X 3/8-24 ADAPTOR

It appears this will thread right onto the new line, but will it go into the stock hardline fitting or is it going to be the same as I have now? Anyone have any way of getting specs on stock parts to check the thread sizing of the stock hardline fittings? It seems they have changed for LMM.

 

[sweetdiesel]

you need that part#??

could try this:

Your so funny ... I could have told you all of this. I have what you need, look at these:

These are Ford lines but I have them for GMs also.


All custom made to what spec's we need and they are all crimped ends.

 

[SIKDMAX]

Pft. F you

Yes my lines are just sitting on my workbench mocking me - frickin pissed off I spent $150 on lines, plus I bought those damn little fittings on eGay which were the wrong size anyway haha.

So youve found the LMM lines/connections are different? What you have will work on LMMs? What material are those made out of?

PM me pricing or something. Ill put up my goodridge lines for sale.

 

[Nor-Cal Nick]

The first LMM we lifted back late last year we found that they are different. So we sent them in to our brake line company that makes lines to our spec and we have been using them ever since.

How do you think we are hooking up the brakes on these LMM coil overs


A 3-piece lifted kit runs $185.00 so no more than that if not cheaper. I just need to get your spec's of length and I can get a exact price. Oh and than have a DOT # also. Come in different colors.

 

[SIKDMAX]

3 piece... aka both rear sides and center splitter drop? Im looking for fronts as well. Let me know whatd that run.

 

[Nor-Cal Nick]

OK well in that case then you are looking for a 5 piece kit.

2 fronts
1 frame to axle rear
2 axle to cali.
