    WTB Rear Disc Brake Axle Tubing/Lines

    I am looking for a good set of rear brake lines for my 1990 Daytona Shelby. I need the ~18" sections that run along the axle with a series of bends in them. These are the tubes that are in between the hose to the caliper and the hose to the main brake tube/line. Must be mostly rust free and be fully functional(have free spinning connectors on the ends, ready for install). I am not sure if any of the cars with disc brakes share this same tube or if the ones I need for this car are specific to the big brake Shelby/GTC etc. cars. They may be the same on all disc brake cars though. Maybe someone can clarify that in this thread. I also need the brackets that mount to the axle that secure these lines to the caliper hose. Anyway, Thanks in advance as always!

    I told someone else this and never got back with them or contacted the company that made them for me to see if they still had the pattern saved into their system. I had classis tube replicate these lines in stainless steel, with the wire spring wrap ect and they were $24/each at the time. I did go to the junkyard and grab a set from a Lebaron to send them. AFAIK they should be the same part for all 89 and newer rear disc brakes regardless of size as the physical mounting characteristics/points are the same for both rotor sizes.

    Send me a PM tomorrow night to remind me to call them.

    Re: WTB Rear Disc Brake Axle Tubing/Lines

    I'm not interested in making my own lines. Do like the idea of having a company make them for me for $24 a piece though. Even though I am hitting a couple NW junkyards today with big inventory's and very well may find a good set with brackets, I might still be interested in getting some new ones to have on the shelf. I'll post later if I have acquired these today. Thanks!

    Just to follow up on this^^^... They did not keep records/patterns of the piece as it was considered a one-time, one-of production.
