I second that . Here is a message I sent to the list last July: _________________________________________ >> I have had a lot of experience dealing with the three companies who make pre-bent fuel lines in the last year -- none of it has been very good. Here is my experience:
Classic Tube -- Customer friendly and accommodating. I ordered a several straight tubes that I eventually used to make my own tube set. They were very responsive. I did not order any pre-bent tube sets from them although I saw a set and wasn't impressed. Fineline Tube -- MEDIOCRE. They were very accommodating but not very responsible. I sent them an old tube to match and they lost it. They were very apologetic. They sent me a tube set but the quality was not very good. When I complained they credited me the full amount without returning it. It took them forever to do anything. I would not recommend them. Inline Tube -- THE VERY WORST. What they sent me was poorly made and didn't fit. When I called them back to return the item I was told that the item, even though in their catalog, was a "non stock item" and couldn't be returned. Their "customer service rep"--Marc was absolutely belligerent. I filed a claim with my credit card company and finally got the charge reversed. There is much more to the story and this is only a summary. Needless to say, I would NOT recommend then for anything. I would recommend that you get a get high quality tube flaring tool and make your own tubes. That is what I finally did and they are significantly better than any I have seen from the three companies that make pre-bent tubes. I got a Ridgid double flaring tool and it works great. If you go for stainless you will be using single flares. I wish I knew then what I know now--it would have saved me a lot of money and a ton of time. >> _________________________________________ Joe ------------------- -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of tim Sent: Tuesday, December 07, 2004 11:41 AM To: Truck Listserve Subject: Re: [oletrucks] brakelines K Ohlgren wrote: > I'm installing a SS straight line kit from Inline Tube this week > http://inlinetube.com/ > they actualy answer the phone & answer knowledgabley if you have questions I had a terrible experience with Inline Tube. I ordered their pre-bent stainless fuel lines for my 54 3100, and they had bends in the wrong places and didn't fit at all. Then they refused to take them back, leaving me to sell them at a loss of several hundred dollars on ebay. I don't know how they are with straight lines that you'd bend yourself, but I would not recommend them whatsoever for pre-bent lines. -tim oletrucks is devoted to Chevy and GM trucks built between 1941 and 1959 *** http://www.team.net/the-local *** Your messages not reaching the list?
