I just broke one of my brake hardlines.

Do the CorkSport lines replace the hardline, or just the soft rubber line

Just the soft lines.

jono20

what really. well thats useless :P why wouldnt they replace the entire thing from the fenderwall to the caliper

jono20

and how WOULD I replace the hardlines if those dont do the whole job

adrock3217

Well..its not "useless" at all. The soft lines are the only part of the entire system that "flexes" under pressure, so putting in hard lines makes it no longer "flex" anywhere...


And uh..replacing firewall to caliper...take their price, and multiply it by...hmm...about 9x for that much SS.


I have no idea how to replace the hard lines! Where is it cracked? I assume you can just find one from a donor car, unscrew it..and screw the other one in...

the flare snapped off when I tried to remove the hard line from the caliper to replace the rotor. I dont know how to fix it though :P I thought the corksport lines might replace the rubber flex hose, and the hardline from the strut to the caliper.

I just meant it was useless in my situation!

anyone else have some other input? donor rx7s are far and few between around here
