Are you talking about braided lines? Or why do you need new lines

check out this website
Ive heard it helps too, however you ONLY replace the soft lines, so from frame to caliper and from frame to junction at diff housing. Ive been told if you were to replace the entire brake system with these braided lines you'd lose braking power because they allow expansion, just less expansion then the factory soft rubber lines.
I may be wrong, but hope this helps
