Steel brake line recommendation

Note:
I do not have the rear convert to disc, they are still stock drums. I don't plan to convert it as I just want to keep them as stock as possible. Yes, even disc is better on changing and etc... i'll just keep them as is.

it is for my 93 hatch DX. thanks

Yeah drum brakes aren't as pretty as discs but the rear only do something like 10% of the stopping anyways so drums are fine :thumb:
I still have mine... I just hate changing the shoes :x

Wont really cool your fluid.

Goodridge
