Line lock install
Can I get an expert opinion on using flexible stainless steel over Teflon lines to install a line lock. Lines are rated at 2800 lbs. I just want a clean install for my location. Trying to stay away from headers. Or another option would be to extend existing line with coupler fittings. Made the mistake of buying just the so limpid without lines. Can't find a line kit by itself and getting to the brake block is difficult after installing SC. I want to locate it on the frame to provide heatsink. Any help would be appreciated.

inside the SS braided line IS a teflon tube, if your PSI rating is OK and the tube/hose is rated for that type of fuild/oil then you can do anything you want, if you mean aeroquip hose YES

Now that's just plain snotty!!!
Instead of just being rude why not explain why you feel that way?? I feel like a shrink!!!! I've been working on cars all my life (I'm 68) I have never seen flex tubing off the master. Ratings are the same (2800 lbs) because I've never seen it I wondered ....why not??? Now you tell me if it was such a stupid question. BTW have installed with standard stainless flared tubing anyway. Feel better?
