Construction & Design
The Goodridge brake line kit features a PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) inner liner, which is chemically inert and highly resistant to brake fluid degradation. This ensures consistent hydraulic pressure transmission without swelling or softening, which can occur with standard rubber hoses. Surrounding the PTFE core is a tightly woven stainless steel braid that provides exceptional strength and protection against abrasion, heat, and environmental corrosion.
This combination of materials results in a brake line that maintains its shape and integrity under extreme conditions, delivering a firmer, more predictable pedal feel and improved overall braking performance. The stainless steel braid also adds a sleek, professional look that complements any engine bay.
Installation & Fitment
The Goodridge Stainless Steel Brake Line Kit is designed for straightforward installation on the specified vehicle models. Each kit includes all necessary hoses and fittings to replace the factory rubber lines without the need for additional modifications or adapters. Installation typically requires basic hand tools and moderate mechanical knowledge, making it accessible for experienced DIY enthusiasts and professional installers alike.
Proper installation ensures optimal brake system performance and safety. It is recommended to have the brake system bled thoroughly after installation to remove any air and ensure consistent hydraulic pressure.
