It is popular to upgrade the stock rubber brake lines to stainless steel
ones. Be aware that not all aftermarket SS brake lines are "DOT
approved" for street use. SS AN hose will fail abruptly, and this
is why they are not approved for street use; stock rubber lines will
fail less suddenly, so they will give you some warning before a terminal
failure.
When installing these aftermarket SS brake lines, be careful not
to twist them on installation. SS AN hose does not like to be twisted,
and improper installation will cause premature failure!
