SS brake lines to replace front lines

i want to get new brake lines for the front calipers.
i would like to get SS lines to replace the starting to dry rot front lines.
i see that summit racing has some SS lines, but i am not sure if they sell
a direct fit line. Anyone have any advice or can point me in the right
direction.

Thanks,

What are you working on?
Brake lines changed from year to year.
Inline Tube has excellent quality lines. I know they sell direct fit sets, not sure they sell individual lines.
You can have them duplicate any lines you have on a custom basis.

I would suggest looking in to a flexible set for the front from Skyjacker. I'm sure that you realize with that much lift you need the flexability. I think my Skyjacker front lines are nylon, for a 4" lift. But they aren't covered in the stainless mesh. The stainless mesh on the front lines, just covers the flexible material like rubber/nylon. I gotta admit that the stainless mesh looks better, but you'll probably pay more for it.
