I have nyla??? Something plastic tube, but if I were to do it over, I would put aluminum out of the brake and then go to the nylaflex? Or flow, or whatever it is. Aluminum so it won't be affected by the heat and plastic for the bending and easy routing of the tube.

I don't remember seeing any of pros/cons of using steel lines. If there is, I just missed it. Since I am over 65, I have an excuse.... To: Jeff Scott. Jeff I cannot find 3/16 Nylaflex hose. I like your idea, of using 3/16 in lieu of 1/4 for less swelling (which is my current delima)...could you bring some to the gathering? I have found other make tubing but it is wall is too thick and the Ferrell/insert combination will not work with the thick wall. 3/16 steel tubing is readily available and I feel comfortable that I can arrange it in such a way that gear flex can be accommodated. If weight is a concern, I'll leave my pocket knife in the hangar.....smile... Ideas Please.. Howard Goodwin Washington, N.C.
