Been looking at my brakes today and have decided to replace the lines. Can anyone give us an idea approx how many meters of brake line I will need as I will have to order it in as live out in the sticks.
Thanks

Not sure on what type of vehicle you have but I used 12mtrs of brake pipe on my dual system 109

I cant recall how much I used, but the hard brake line isn't expensive. Make sure you double flare though, which not all of the flare tools do.

Yes you are right seems alot to me too but I bought 6 mtrs and then had to buy another 6 and all I have left to do is the two lines from the master cylinder to the shuttle valve and I hope I have enough. I would think that a 73 would have had dual brakes as an option only, easy way to tell if your master cylinder is long with two lines coming out of it.
