Hard lines from proportioning valve to frame

I'm getting ready to do a 6 lug, front disc, non power install. Using CPP prop. Valve.
Is there a source for non power disc hard lines, or will they need to be hand fabricated?

Have you tried Inline Tube? I got my lines from them but not sure if they offer what you are looking for.

It doesn't look like they have a manual front disc option. They got just about everything else though.

Re: Hard lines from proportioning valve to frame

I buy my tubing from oreillys....I buy the long sticks, then cut and flare the length I need...but I also have a brake line flare tool from eastwood... so that makes it easier..
I'm not sure what your meaning by non power disc tubing....tubing is tubing as far as I know ..just different sizes .. and differing nut sizes

I meant tubing that is pre-bent for non power disc applications. My wife works at a Federated Auto Parts store and gets me one heck of a discount. No problem getting straight sticks, I was just wondering if pre-fab lines were available.

Well, they don't exactly look factory, but I guess they ain't too bad.

Re: Hard lines from proportioning valve to frame

Bend your own for a cleaner look.

Or, if you're feeling froggy, install -3AN braided stainless flex hoses to a bracket on the frame and connect the existing lines via bulkhead adapter fittings.

Not the same master/pv setup, but this is how I bent my lines. If I was more talented with a bender, I would've done 90 deg bends to the firewall, and ran them flush to the firewall.
