I recently purchased brake lines for the 4th time from 4Lifetime Lines, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the quality and service. Their products are top-notch—durable, reliable, and easy to install.
I had to run new brake lines on my 2006 Subaru Legacy. This line has been very easy to work with, very flexible and easy to flare.
Good quality. Easy to form and bends with hands or bender. Forms flares easy without difficulty.
