are stainless braided lines really worth swap too? if so what the lowest cost set to buy?

 

I put a set on my 92 excab silvy, and it felt better, and seemed to stop a little better. And that was with 185k on the ticker. I plan on putting some on this truck as well, though I probably wont do it till I lift......prerunner look is what I'm gonna go for.....anyways, I'd say go or them, shouldnt be much more than 100 bones or so....I think it was 85 or 95 for the old 92....

 

I plan on doing them eventually also, just one of those mods I keep putting off for whatever reason. Guys who have done the swap claim to get a better pedal feel...check for either Russell or Earl's brake lines I believe. I think the set of 4 or 5 lines is between $100-$150ish? Personally, I wouldn't skimp on brake parts...I'd go for a well known name brand such as the ones I mentioned above.

 

Personally I thought they were worth it, the pedal feel is definatly better I did notice that they make the brakes lock up much faster don't know if that's a good thing or not but that's what abs is there for. Price runs from $100-200

 

i tried looking up the earls but couldn't find any. anybody have a part number. i'll keep looking.

 

Here ya go: RN50509 part number out of.........oops, not a sponcer. I have the complete stock replacement brake kit. It includes 5 lines and the block for the rearend. The only thing that I didn't care for was that the lines in my opinion are to short. The dirctions say and show you to route them in the stock locations. You can't do this!!!!! Their to short!!! So you have to flip a braket, turn this and that..........it all came together. Oh one other pointer, if you are replacing or painting the rotors, be sure to install the caliper so that the bleeder screw is to the top. I put it towards the bottom and...........I'm stupid!!!!

will this work for 4wd tahoe? with the coil springs and wasn't sure. pm me that link if you would.

 

I had to exchange my front brake lines for the truck versions I believe the suv kit came with 28" front lines and mine were 32", I would measure the front lines before purchasing a set, the rear ones were fine, Russell ones are p/n: 672450.

 

Is that P/N for the ones that worked or the ones for your Yukon?

 

you will have a better pedal feel, because the lines will not ballon up like the stock rubber ones when you press the pedal.
