I think all this rusty brake line talk jinxed me! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]
It's been an eventful day to say the least. I was heading down south to pick up my latest acquisition this morning. I got five miles out of town with my 1995 K2500 Suburban and 24 foot enclosed trailer. I went to stop at a 4 way major intersection when the light just turned yellow. The brake pedal went to the floor. The front steel line burst three inches from the brake hose. Luckily there was no one in the intersection and I was able to stop the truck with the trailer brakes.
The other lucky part was that I was 100 yards from my buddy's garage and he was able to create a new steel line, remove the old one, install it and bleed the brakes, all in one hour. I was then on my way, again. I got down the Southern Jersey and picked the car up and got back home around 4:00 PM. I'm exhausted.
Does anyone make brake line kits for these trucks or do we have to fabricate the entire system from scratch?
