Copper-nickle is what you want to bend.....by hand. Then rent/buy a double flair tool. I used stainless fitting to go on mine too. Hope things don't ever rust again.

Mine was 3/16 there
here here

If that one is bad, can the others be far behind?????

Come to think about it, I did avoid the two front hard lines, they looked great. The rest were trashed somewhere or another.

1/4 for the long run to the back.

SS is good, but MUCH harder to bend. Cu Nickle is easy! See above for size.


Extremely Pliable, Easy Flaring and Bending
Will Not Rust

Some versions, I think early, had forward mounted calipers on the driver's side. Probably a kit for that.
