I have started using the Cunifer tubing for brake line replacements. I
bought it and the fittings locally from a regional franchise/supplier of
hydraulic fittings, Colliflower.

They stock the tubing and get the fittings in a day or two. Bubble
flare, inverted flare, etc. The Brakequip website has the part numbers
for the fittings.

I'm sure mail order is cheaper, but it is nice to walk into a store and
find it on the shelf...
So far my results are great. I will let you know in 15 years of winter
(salt) driving if they last lnoger than OEM steel....
BTW, they also have "armor" in stainless steel. That is that spring
looking wire wound over brake lines in certain areas. Brakequip calls it
protector.
