Best site to buy calipers/brake hoses from?
Is there a regular site that you guys use? I have one locked caliper up front, and one in the rear. I'm just going to change all 4, along with the brakes and pads. Probably should get tie rods and get the done at the same time, but that's another thing all together.

These are the best and cheapest SS brake lines I have found. I offered them $55 and it was accepted.

Wow, they're actually pretty cheap from Advance Auto compare to what parts usually cost for the car. Too bad they don't have a valve cover set.

True, $89 but with a little wiggle room and the option of ordering other stuff at the same time to save shipping.

I also bought a cheap set from the guys that lhop77 spoke of. The ones off of E-Bay were about three inches longer than optimum, did not come with the clips or copper gaskets that Dayle provides. Are they usable, I'll install them on one of my SVXi and see. The aluminum clips were very strong looking... I have had Goodridge on my Claret for maybe EIGHT YEARS now! No problems, no issues.
