I really want some of Black Widow's extended brake lines, but of course they are, well doing whatever they are doing.

Has anyone purchased these straight from Crown Performance? Did/does Black Widow have a part number that I can reference when dealing with Crown?

Their website shows several types of tubing, one being AQP think that's what BWP sells?

I dont know about crown as I have never dealt with them, but have you thought about going to a local hose maker? Theres a chain store around my area called mr. house that can do any type of hose you want. Also theres another place (the place I frequent) near me called deering industries. These guys have been around a long time and know their stuff. It just as cheap, if not cheaper than anywhere else and they do the hose in 20 minutes while I wait. And they have hoses and fittings up the ying yang. Kevlar braided, nylon coated, braided stainless steel wrapped in kevlar, you name it they have it. My point being is maybe someone in your area knows a shop or you can look around and find a good quality place that does hoses. I dont think youll be dissapointed, you will get what you want the same day and pay the same price. I dont know just a thought is all. If not good luck finding what you need.
 
In talking with Shane with I ordered mine, it sounded like he had them custom made for BWP. He'd given them specs for what he wanted and that's how they made them. I know this because at one point Crown switched in a new guy to make BWP's lines and he just did it the way he thought they should be done. Shane had to educate the new guy on how he was supposed to make it BWP's way, not the new guy's way.
 
"bullet proof" superlifts are I believe jsut kevlar reinforced. You should be able to get them locally. Mine from deering are kevlar reinforced.

I just looked at corwn's website and they are in vista. Which is a good hours or so drive south of me. Deering industries is a 10 minute drive from work. I have noticed many hose manufacturers in Los Angles though, weird.
 
Just to let you guys know, I got a hold of Crown and they have the specs and are familiar with exactly what Black Widow was offering and will provide it for $120 which I believe is the same price.

I'm still going to investigate local options as well. I'll post the outcome.
