Here in the States, your techniacally supposed to replace your rubber lines every 2 years!
I went 20 years on my Sabre before I replaced the lines.

Speaking of replacing the brake lines... anyone get custom lines made? I seem to remember someone had it quoted at $400. What does it take to get a quote?

Depends if you want to be legal or not.
If you dont mind illeagle then unbolt ya brake system and take it into any hydraulic hos fitting shop and they can fit them.
The main difference is the stuff like earls etc use commecters that unscrew. DOT dont like that because a dopey owner can not do em up or nor check that they are done up etc.

Legal?? If I wanted to be legal, I would put a governator on that would kick in at 65mph. I've done the brakes the other way on the Sabre (hydraulic shop) and it came out to $140 US for 3 lines with the ends on them.
