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.

 

Napa has fittings to change the bubble flare to double inverted flare, then use common brake lines, thats what I done.

 

Thanks sowder, I'm already on it and I thank you for your help.

 

If one blew, the other is ready to go, and probably both the steel lines in the front. I would do them all while in there.

 

Well, not really, since that's exactly what happened. Guess what I'm doing today. And it's gotten kinda cold where I'm at too!!
