    Where does everyone get their brake hoses from, Im doing an F-body conversion, and I want the hoses to be long enough, I know that Zoomer sells them as does intense, I bought the goodridge ones from pfyc.com for my old GP and was impressed, but their too short for this project.

    Just bend the bracket out a little, the Goodridge ones are fine.

    yeah I got the goodridge lines, they were great on my 99 gt, so They should be phenomenal on my 01 gt with a f-body upgrade.

    well so far, Ive done the rears and I got the fitting off with a torch and vise grips, a 1/2" line wrench fits it but its soo corroded that it just rounds off the nut. so I heated it up, snapped on my vise grips, and it spun if off no sweat. now hopefully nothing leaks!!!!

    ZZP supposedly switched suppliers of their ss brake lines and the ones they carry now aren't supposed to have any leaking issues.
