wh500special 2,055 #27 Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) I hate to admit it, but I have had these same issues with my '88 full size Chevy.What gets me the most about this, is the steel brake lines! With all the safety features vehicles have on them, they still use plain steel brakes lines that rust and can blow when you need brakes the most. I would gladly pay the extra to have stainless steel brake lines as standard equipment and it wouldn't cost that much more! I'm surprised that stainless brake lines haven't been required, especially with vehicles lasting much longer these days.C-85 I agree 100%I blew a brake line approaching a rail crossing -with a train going across -in my truck. Had to throw it in park, mash the parking brake, and hope. Had to change my shorts when I got home. Calcium Chloride is typically less corrosive than regular road salt...more expensive though. Typically used at low temperatures when salt has ceased to work. Steve Edited October 13, 2015 by wh500special 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikekot3 92 #28 Posted October 13, 2015 Sur&R makes really nice hand bendable brake line material as opposed to the rigid parts store stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
