Brake lines

Post by Gunthner »

I have to replace the metal brake lines in my 1970 Westy. Went to the local Flaps and found out that they don't carry milimeter brake line. Does anyone have a source that offers a brake line replacement kit or what I need? I've also heard that VW put a double flare on the end of their lines. What's the technique for doing that?

Most likely they carry the steel line you need, but don't know it.

Try asking for metric ISO bubble flare line in the length you need. Or for the longer runs, just get it in the correct length to start with.
