stainless brakelines = trouble

[oldyak]

what are the potential or real problems you in the group have had after installing the stainless lines ...???
I really have spent a lot of bucks so far on the restoration and if something is going to make this installation make something else fail...I need to know!
thanks

Some have experienced rubbing issues but I never had that problem with my install. There is another active thread somewhere on the forum that is discussing this.

the lines rubbing agaisnt the tire is the only thing to worry about. I am pretty sure but I think the lines will rub only if you have wider tires 7.5"+. I can not see the slicers having problems. I have this problem but i will be getting new earls from shobros that are supppse to be alittle longer and come with a spring

what I meant was..are these going to cause problems with any other portions of my brake system?.
I have the original size tires and rims

yeah, they're gonna cause your brake pedal to be really stiff, and actually start working right when you hit the pedal as opposed to it sinking an inch before anything happens! They'll also cause your brakes to become much more responsive. Definitely a problem. I hate responsive brakes.
