Brake line kit

Thinking about redoing the brake lines on my 1995 Ford F150 XL, 4.9L standard cab longbed. Anyone have a link to a compatible kit? Thanks for any help.

I have used the SS kits from Inline Tube on several vehicles.





Lots of places sell pre-bent brake line kits.

one thing about inline tube. .... they sent ME the wrong kit for a vehicle, (1999 Oldsmobile Aurora is the car, they sent me lines for some entirely different application)
I ended up out a lot of money (300 ish?) because they would happily take them back and send me the right ones, if I paid a restocking fee of more than the purchase price of the lines.

On two vehicles, the master cylinder lines were wrong. A phone call to them with a picture of my old lines was all it took. They said they include the most popular ones in the kit, would send me the other lines with no additional charge and did not want me to return the incorrect lines.

IT IS much cheaper to do it yourself with alloy lines.
you can buy the line with all fittings needed for under $100.
all you need to make the lines is a tubing flair kit, and a tubing cutter.

Inline Tube sent me the wrong kit as well - this was for my former '96 Crown Vic. They sent the kit for ABS, and I had distinctly ordered WITHOUT ABS. Returns were $$$ so I just used ONE line that was the same from the kit, and made the rest from scratch. That'll teach me...

Yes. Making lines from nickel copper would be cheaper.
