I need the metal brake lines which run from the wheel cylinders to the block on the rear axle. Our local Dodge dealer was closed so I am looking for any suggestions. Thanks.

 

I bought a Stainless Steel set to do the entire system from a company called Classic Tube for 225 bucks. They make them out of plain steel too. I don't know if they sell individual lines though, they may only sell kits to do the whole vehicle.

 

I got mine from O'rilies but Advanced has them too.

 

I have bought from Classic tube and if you want just the axle set they will sell it to you Ken

 

Thanks, When bleeding the brakes, the bleeder valve broke off flush with the wheel cylinder. So a simple job has turned into a whole brake job which, after removing the drum, was needed anyways. Does anyone know what size the nut is which is on the axle?

 

I don't know off the top of my head. If no one else chimes in till I get home from work I'll check my socket and let you know.

 

Thanks Tater93, I appreciate it. York, Pa I was through there several times in Nov-Dec for work. That is pretty country all through there.

 

The rear axle is 2-9/16" round hex.

 

ditto 2 9/16" on my 2WD, .... got the socket from UAP/NAPA for around $15, .... don't use air ratchet for off or on: my 1/2" drive hole is nearly rounded out ...

 

bought a 20ft roll, bent and flared my own, looks as good as pre-bent ones.

 

That's what I did. I got the poly coated stuff. Not supposed to rust. Or rust as fast

 

On my rear end it was 2 1/2". I use the 2 9/16" round on the front.

 

Thanks all for the input. I "thought" I knew enough from all the trucks I've owned thru the years. However, the drivers have always been 1/2 tons Dodge, Jeep, IH and this 3/4 is a whole different animal. Makes me feel like a complete noob.
