IMO, just buy brake lines for a XJ. I think its tripping over dollars to save a penny. Or if you can put if off for a few weeks I'll sell you mine. both front and rear stainless steel, 30$
(need longer ones)
thats the name of it, I forgot!

so in the budget builds page it says brake lines for a 2000~2001 chev 1500 will work in the cherokee but I looked at them today and the end on them was bigger where the hard line would mate to the rubber, any other ideas for me 6.5 long arm lift edit never mind reading to fast again I'll have to recheck again but what are you running for front brake lines,
there not much longer than stock from my understanding.
does he sell link material now? last time i tried getting some from him he didn't.
but keep in mind jeff, no matter where you go DOM link material isn't cheap. i'm into mine 80 bucks an arm before the joints.

But I know you can buy precut and tapped material from teraflex for$$$ and shorter length material from lowrange

The only difference jeff is diameter and thickness if someone is refering to link material they are usually talking about 1 1/2 to 2" .025 wall dom

and yes he can unless his tap is crap now, but he's done it in the past. i think mine are 1.75 or 2" .281 wall but i can check tomorrow to be sure.
Tell you the truth im not sure if he stocks it or not but its worth a shot the last group order he did on rme he did order some bigger stuff so it could be worth a shot,

ha ha sorry ben hanks got me calling it that, cause if you say link material to tap to most shops they know exactly what your looking for.
and yes he can unless his tap is crap now, but he's done it in the past. i think mine are 1.75 or 2" .281 wall but i can check tomorrow to be sure.
nice, you can also try summit machine they carry it too but they usually sell out quick.
