I just finished removing the discs and rotors from my newly acquired rear axle. The passenger side brake line is broken off at the caliper, the driver side appears to be OK. I would like to replace the whole thing, including the feed line to the splitter at the differential. Where can I find these pre-formed?

Check out this thread on TGO. Just saw it the other day.

Thank, I saw that too, but I'm not positive on the fittings I need on the ends. The axle is vintage 1982, so I'm assuming standard fittings instead of metric Confused

you can also buy plain straight tubing from most parts stores like napa in standard lengths. then you just have to bend it in place. Not very hard, cuz the stuff bends really easy. Just bend it around the neck of your favorite tall boy so it doesn't kink. WAY cheaper this way.
