Yeah, Russell stainless steel braided lines are only $60, the, what you spend on brake fluid. Do not see how you can **** it up either. Read up on it, I even think MadMan did a write up on bleeding your brake lines you can read also. Take your time and do it right, you will be okay.
What mods would you do to my truck?

This thing makes my leg shake a little. With tires that big though, there's no room for flex, but with the added clearance, I'm not sure it would matter. It would go over a downed phone pole ok, me thinks....

I really like the fact that he lifted it, put some massive tires on it...yet, didnt fall into the same dumb ****** trend of adding a pointless 2 foot lift as well..his shit looks a lot more functional then the sky high trucks you usually see with the same size tires!
That thing looks tough as hell though!!

Okay so, What i just said was stupid so i erased it. Im not sure how the whole brake lines are run honestly. I thought there was a seperate line going from the master cylinder to each tire. But when i looked at the SS Lines on ebay. They dont seem to be long enough to stretch the length of a truck...Im probably stupid for saying that.
My guess is that the lines that run down my frame to the rear tires split off to some middle point. Where the SS lines would then be run to each tire. And the front lines would run just straight from the master cylinder down to each front tire?....
So, that leaves me with all that other brake line that could rust off my frame and stuff though doesnt it? Ive already had to replace one line down there on the frame... But the rest dont look so bad. Help guys! Haha i need my truck back on the road!

HUH, you don;t need your whole brake line changed. Pending where the leak was found.
I got mine for $50 from Canada on Ebay.
Your brake lines don;t run through out the truck. I'll try to take a look for ya. But bacially just remove the wheels and you can see where the line go an need to replace the OEM to SS ones.
***** best$50 I ever spent. I slammed the brakes and she stopped great. I didn;t get a chance to do rears yet!
