Just wanted to throw this out there.

I took my truck to Kramer Tire to get it inspected. They said it barely passed because my front brake lines are dry rotted.

My front brake lines are metal.

Smells fishy.

 

If they are metal, then how many times do they flex in turns before they break?? Not trying to be an a$$, but there HAS to be rubber lines at each front wheel to be able to steer the truck.....

 

I agree,

There are rubber lines that run from the frame down to your calipers if you get up under there and look. They have to be rubber because your axle moves up and down and your calipers move in and out as you turn your wheels. If you look up under your vehicle there is also a rubber line in the back that allows for rear axle movement due to the suspension.

By the way if they are dry rotted I would look into replacing them, I think they are less than $10 a piece and it could really save your butt sometime.

 

uh unless they are braided? and then they still have rubber inside-but unless they have X-ray vision? maybe he better look again! rotten rubber lines are no fun when they go!
