1998 taurus brake line question
Hey everyone, wife has a 1998 taurus and her rear brake line gave out yesterday and all of a sudden she had no brakes at all! Luckily it happened in a parking lot, so no accident and no injuries, but she was crying when she called me she was so upset about the whole thing. My problem now, is fixing it. I haven't been able to find a new brake line online anywhere, and I don't want to go to a dealer for it because you know thery're going to want an arm, a leg and my 1st born for it
Anyone have any ideas where to get one or if there is a repair kit for brake lines out there? It appears to be a 3/16" line. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks.

Funny you mention that!
