just search for steel braided lines. theres a lot of places that sell them but to me their too expensive for what its worth. is there any reason why you dont want to run the hard plastic lines?

I work with this @!#$ all day long. 50ft cost ME (and thats 10% over cost) $150+.

Now when you add fittings, the cost just keeps going up.

well when I'm looking at about 12 feet of it and thats all its not such a big investment and since there is just going to be a hand full of male fittings all the same size its not going to be a huge deal

well, you need to crimp to stainless line, or else it will not hold. Keep that in mind.

your best bet is to search this forum, look in the air ride threads that popped up about 6 months to a year ago. there was a guy with a second gen that had full hard lines. he said his didnt cost him very much at all. i believe he used some type of plumping pipe and made his own pipe bender though
