Where do I buy brake lines?

[Edward Turner]

I have a front disc caliper that’s intermittently hanging up on my 98, only on longer drives so I’m thinking it might be the line instead of a corroded piston. There sure are a lot of options showing the line for purchase and I’d hate to buy a sketchy product. Who has replaced their passenger side line with a product they are happy with and where did you buy it?

Replaced mine with YJ lines. They are several inches longer and are a direct swap. I picked both up for $25

Are you looking for stainless lines and extended? I am actually looking for the same thing right now and was going to see what people used for 4" lift that's the most complete set.

X2 for @tworley.

I'm just looking for a stock replacement that will hold up. Several big box auto stores have lines in stock, I’m just trying to avoid putting in a crap piece so I don’t have to do it twice. It could still be the caliper but the Jeep is 20 years old and while I’m there I might as well head off another visit.

I had goodridge lines with my AP racing BBK on my old 350, they were high quality and available.

What's your budget?

For the YJ lines the part numbers I used were BH38861 & BH 38862. Even came with copper washers.

Do you remember where you ordered them from? You're also running around 4" right, with no problems on line length?

I’m not planning to cheap out on brakes since they are critical running gear. I looked at Summit and Jegs and I was asking to see if Oreillys or Autozone had produced acceptable results to avoid having to wait beyond the holiday weekend.

The YJ lines that tworley has look pretty nice too. That may be the best bang for buck kind of deal.

I picked them up on Ebay. Cencalpartslingers was the seller. The brand is Raybestos. Yes, I am running 4" of lift, I have more than enough slack with these.

Thanks! I just got both on Amazon for $33. Saved me quit a bit over the extended braided lines that are on 4wd sites.

Also, my stock lines were working with 4" of lift too, but they were awfully tight at droop. IIRC YJ lines are 2" longer than TJ lines
