Rusted brake lines, Unless you live in the desert, this will get you eventually Options

[mr-belowaverage]

Right now we're repairing a 94 AT200 with a brake fluid leak in my shop. I did my oil change on the weekend, and decided I'd better have a close look at my brake lines, too. They are rusted as hell! The metal is whitish and flaky, and they are not going to last long. 15 years of Canadian winters, freezing and thawing, road salt and pressure have added up.

Here is the problem: OEM parts are hard to find, and expensive. Some might not even be available, or seriously back ordered.

I have already replaced my main fuel line with a neoprene line that doesn't rust. What kind of lines are available as replacements for brake lines?

Now I am not talking about the short lines at the wheel that you can find SS kits for all over eBay. I'm talking about the entire brake line set, front to rear, master cylinder to each wheel.

Has anyone had to do this? Can you get long SS lines to fit? What options are available??
