Replacing Brake Lines

[fwc]

Just got the Tuff Country extended brake lines for the front and rear of my 91 Jimmy with 2" lift. Any thing I need to know before I replace the stock lines? Any O rings or washers I should get? Any tips or tricks? /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif

Well hopefully the new ones came with new washers,little brass crush washers,may have to zip tie them away from your tires.

Nope not really. Pretty straight forward on your 91. Was a PITA on my 79 with the brake line connecting on the inside of the frame.

Nope, lines didnt come with new washers. What size (ID/OD) will I need? How many? Can I get them at Home Depot? Thanks

Will have to go to a NAPA pr auto parts store to pick up the washers. They are made of brass material and crush when you tighten the lines on. Just take a line into the parts store with you and ask them for them. They should know what you need.

They are copper. Ask for 10mm ones.
