Can I make all the brake lines in my car from a $15 coil of brake tubing? Since I'm running dual master cylinders a several of the brake lines and fitting need to be custom. In this video I show you how to measure, bend, cut and flare your brake lines.
Plus watch to the end for a story about motivation.

Good to hear someone put it in the correct words - being scared to get started. This is a real thing for many of us.

@GarageTimeAutoResto 3 года назад

I've been there too!

@roundtailrestoration 4 года назад

Hated doing my brake and fuel lines. Fortunately, they weren't as complicated as yours. Good talk at the end, Tom. Motivation maintenance is incredibly important and something people don't always consider when it's a multi-year labor of love!

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

We all hate different things which is totally normal!

@rodneynelson3862 4 года назад

Hi Tom, your message at the end of your video was very timely for me. I was starting to lose motivation as my project keeps dragging on. But I decided to do exactly what you said, go a bit out of order and do some thing that could help motivate me. Awesome job as usual. Thank you for sharing all of what you do. You are the man!

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

Don't feel bad, I think this happens to everyone at some point! Thanks for sharing😀.

@jwright650 4 года назад

I needed the motivational talk at the end, my project is creeping along.

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

Thanks man! That's just the way it is for all of us.

@MrWilloughbyP 4 года назад

Love your channel and your approach to restoring a car. My Porsche is a 996 and it will never go through a resto like your are doing. I do have three Saab 900s that I have restored. Your advice and insight is spot on to keep the motivation going.

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

Thanks Paul,. Pretty soon the 996's will be considered classics too. I Iove those Saabs

@joew1803 4 года назад

Tom - your channel definitely helps me stay motivated on my project. Watching you wade into uncharted waters with your thoughtful planning gives me a lot of confidence to get out there and try it myself. My 74 Carrera sat unloved for way to long (years). Brakes were bad, CIS injection was locked upon, and the gas tank was bad. I now have it running again, brakes are redone (as well as a pedal box overhaul), and now I only need to swap out the gas tank. New tires and a few cosmetic things and I will be back out on the road pretty quick. Thanks - I hope you keep up the excellent videos!!

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

Will do. Enjoy that Carrera. That's a good one!

@asicerik 4 года назад

Thanks Tom! Your videos are great motivation for me. I appreciate the advice your providing. I am actually working on my brake lines as we speak. Your video came in just in time!

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

Awesome, did you notice how varied the price of replacement lines are? $450 to $75.

@leominster24 4 года назад

Garage Time - Restomod yes! QQ how were you able to get photos of the placements of your brake lines or photo sections of your Porsche restore for reference? Website or service manual?

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

@@leominster24 I just googled it. I find that many 911's aren't messed with too much. 356s are a different story, so I rely on the workshop manuals more.

@raisingjunior6389 4 года назад

Saving this video for when I'll be doing my brake lines :)

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

Easy for a guy like you😀

@DoubleRRestorations 4 года назад

Turned out nice Tom. True words at the end of the video.

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

Thanks Russ.

@1ocean515 4 года назад

Great video. Really liked seeing the quality flaring tool. There are times when it’s worth stepping up and putting down the extra dollars for such a tool. It will last a lifetime, and it’s surprising how often it gets used. Not to mention a buddy will thank you big time when their project benefits from you having it. 👍

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

I don't mind spending money on good tools. That flaring tool is really good.

@stephenlmckeown1439 4 года назад

Very very true, you have to release you are in for the long haul and mostly on your own.

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

True, the go it alone part is a good topic too. Have you ever asked for help and then get random disparaging comments? I have.

@chrisrudling8420 4 года назад

Great content once again mate!

Thank you!

@philipwayne6149 4 года назад

Sage advice at the end, Tom.

@rossmoultrie885 4 года назад

Another great video Tom, thanks for taking the time to put them together & share. I’m also working my way through a 1972T project and have almost got the speed wobbles a few times, but never progressed to a psyched out tank slapper. As much as the tech problem solving / solutioning helps solve technical problems, I think all of us in the same boat sharing our journey and proving that it is do-able for one guy in his shed unites and gives us confidence and inspiration to carry on. So right about the need to bolt up a shiney bit occasionally to feed that project naysayer goblin we all have in our head. Heil Tom, Heil RU-vid, Heil RU-vidrs, Death to Project Goblins!

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

Ha ha, well said. Thanks to all for the great comments!

@cybersurfer2010 4 года назад

Hi Tom great vid as always... Soon I have to make 2 fuel lines for my 914 that have to go through the tunnel. This vid helps!

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

I have another video on the fuel lines. Have fun. If you are making your own, my advice is dont go too heavy wall.

@anthonyray5515 4 года назад

Garage Time - Restomod - haha. True.

@anthonyray5515 4 года назад

Your comments at the end. How to inspire yourself on your projects. Just do something! Clean around it. Organise around it. Look around at the project and live in the moment deciding what to work on next. That dread/uneasy/complicated feeling is just nature messing with you. Get busy! Even if busy is turning on the lights and standing there. Old philosopher said; As we think we will become. Think what's next! Think I'm on it! Think about and do! Knowing is not enough; We must do! Think it; live it; do it!

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

True, I made this video before about just getting an hour a day will get you through the tough times. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0r4WCZW7oxI.html There's always something to do!

@anthonyray5515 4 года назад

@@GarageTimeAutoResto I find even when I really don't want to I just go hangout in the garage. It helps some times. X)

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

Agree, sometimes just sweeping up. I don't hang out in the garage very often, but I find a local car show is good sometimes for motivation

@evk7428 4 года назад

Will you be replacing the rubber brake lines with braided ones? Great work as always.

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

Thanks, I'm not sure yet, but will probably use high quality rubber.

@jwright650 4 года назад

Another thought....my PTFE -20AN lines that I made for my radiator hoses are okay, but I can't figure out how to make them look like a pro did it. Any tips with that? I'm tackling the smaller -6AN fuel hoses next.

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

I responded to the wrong comment , oops

@manuelhuerta7909 3 года назад

Hi do u know who can or get two brake lines that attach to the master cylinder on a 1991 Silverado c1500

@GarageTimeAutoResto 3 года назад

Make them, or check any auto parts store if the truck is stock

@jwright650 4 года назад

I haven't figured out how to replicate the tight bends close to the ends that the factory performed. It's tough to get a 90 degree bend out at the end of the line.

@GarageTimeAutoResto 4 года назад

Right, the factory has custom tooling for sure. Are you flaring the big one or using compression fittings? If compression, then leave the tubing long, then bend it and cut off the excess. Or you could modify the flaring tool. It's always a puzzle!

@jwright650 4 года назад

So the Porsche has bubble flares. That is one step short of making a double flare. I used double flares on all of my stuff, just because of the tube nuts and brake fittings that was on the C5 brakes that I put on my ole 70 Camaro.
