Speaking of brake lines, can anyone here, preferably a newer guy maybe working on a budget, use either one of these thingies?

The 1st is a rubber upper hose with an attached splitter for dual discs.



And this one is a braided stainless line, upper and lower (it appears) with a brake light switch in the system. No idea if the switch actually works, but the line's in very good visual shape, not all cruddy or rusty.



Both at least appear to be in very good shape, although no guarantees. Yours for the cost of shipping, and I doubt either would be beyond $10-12 anywhere in the Continental US (apologies in advance to our members outside of those boundaries.)
If you can use 'em, email or PM, ok?   [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Calm down, Justin. I notice in this post that the god of New Hampshire prefers Bob's SS brake hose. Perhaps his ride to Crowley may be a bit longer for hose comparison, eh? The point is, we have lots of choices in vendors should one be out of stock, closer to home, friendlier, etc etc.

I personally prefer the black OE hose. Besides, if everyone guy liked what I like, they'd all want to be married to my wife!  ;D
