Default Finally a good part

Just to let everyone know,I found a part that fits and was reasonably priced. On my way home from having 2 1/2 inch pipes installed the brake pedal went half way to the floor. A pinhole was found in the line connecting both rear calipers. I ordered a stainless replacement from Keen parts.The line went on perfectly and had no problems sealing. It took about 10 minutes to bleed with the pressure bleeder and she was back on the road. I have been through hell with other brake lines and transmission lines but this fit.

Keen is a good parts supplier as is Volvette, Full Throttle Corvette and Corvette Pacifica. Ive had good luck with all of them. CSSBInc as well for brake parts.
