Thanks.

Where did you order them from? I know the Goodridge lines work fine.

I link would have been easier, and I am guessing you got them off of eBay. Tell them that they do not work properly and get it sorted out.

Go with Goodridge or oem rubber ones. I already switched back to rubber ones on the rear brakes, zzp's "newer improved ones" failed. I will be putting my front ones back to oem lines in the spring.

If you want stainless steel go with good ridge. Performance peddler gives clubgp members a discount but if your not just type in glubgp and i think it come out to like 90.

Heres one rule of thumb with brake components.

You can go as fast, blow an engine and still be fine because you can stop....l
Instead you can go fast, blow a brake line and crash because you couldn't stop!!!

Just remember that. Ive blow 2 ZZP rear lines luckily I was at a stop both times. supposedly they just got new and improved lines but I wouldn't test them.

Goodridge lines are what you want if you go with SS lines. There proven lines.
