Re: 98 TJ Brake Lines....
When I got my CJ7 it was just over 10 years old and the rust on the body
alone was terminal, let alone the brake lines. There was no metal
structure left at all to repair to. It already had new body skins, but
there was literally no metal left under it, only fiberglass and tar.

I need to replace both fenders and the amount of rust underneath is incredible.
The gas tank skid plate has large holes in it!

I've got plenty of rust on my '81 CJ5, but the brake lines are solid. Here
in sunny Southern California, I guess I'm protected from the problems the
rest of you guys have to deal with.
