REQ: Help and or advice re: brake lines - speficically front to rear line....
1988 Jeep Wrangler
4 cylinder
Complete brake system failure
Replacing everything
Master cylinder
Proportioning valve
All brake lines
All old brake components removed from the jeep
Installing replacement stainless steel brake lines from 4WD hardware
nice kit
Anyone done this before????
Need any hints or tips on how to install new brake line that goes from
proportioning valve to the rear brake line
Had to cut old line to allow removal of this old line
This line has quite a few bends to it.
Afraid to ask how much stuff has to be removed to allow installation
of this line
Anyone know a good contortionist???
Any help or advice is greatly appreciated

Hi Ken,
The only thing extra, I do is pull the radiator when replacing the
water pump. Try your best to feed it through, without removing anything.
Buy one of these spring thingies to assist in making your bends without
kinking them: http://www.----------.com/tubebender.jpg

Re: REQ: Help and or advice re: brake lines - speficically front to rearline....
Hmmm......
I don't know if it is possible to do from the bottom. It is easy with
the body tub out of the way.....
I am thinking you at least will need a hoist so you have room to
maneuver the line.
If you have to bend the line, I recommend one of those coil spring
benders so you don't kink it. They thread over the line end slowly,
then slide along to where you need to bend and keep the lines round.
Auto parts shops sell them and plumbing supply shops sell them.
