Two things on a car that people neglect the rear end oil and brakes lines and fluid...there is a two year brake fliud change interval on most cars I have never bought a used car that was kept up on when it comes to brake fluid changes... but all my cars get flushed every two years... As long as you have a dual circut master cylinder and a operational emergency brake your pretty safe but again those are items people ignore untill its to late.

That's pretty crazy. I have had a few used cars never any with brake issues.

Same thing happened to me recently on a 50 year old Dodge. Clean car, no rust, still has original undercoating, brake lines looked fine. I touched the rear line to move it and it sprung a leak, same same. I could have bought the replacement brake line kit or installed stainless but I decided to go with NI-COP which are nickel/copper purchased right from AutoZone. Throw your pipe bender into the trash because you won't need it ever again. You can bend these lines into the most creative forms imaginable with your hands and they will look neater than factory. They also double flare like butter and will never rott. Food for thought👍💯

The inspection list got a few more items. Glad you’re okay and caught this.

Glad you’re ok! You’ve been a wealth of knowledge for this novice and I’d hate to lose you lol.

Probably a good idea for me to check the lines on my 1941 Buick over 80 years old, great video as always keep them coming

Totally agree. Brakes were the first thing I did. I could never sleep if I ever had a passenger even.

Thanks for sharing. I'll have a closer look on my 71 transam. Changed already the flexible hoses, wheel cylinders, pads and break fluid. Rest seems okay... Cheers from France

Nice truck..... good content and thanks

Good video Brian, I’ll be lost my trucks now, thanks 😀😀

My friends like 03 chevy pickup brake lines blew out on me. Good times!

Steel lines are cheap. About 10 years ago I had my GF's 94 Taurus on the lift at my dad's. At the time alot of 90's cars here in IL were eating through the steel lines. Anyway, the same thing happened so I "saw red" and ripped every single line after the proportioning valve off. Put all new lines and hoses on it to all 4 corners.......I slept good after that.

Brakes are a thing alot of guys don't think of tell it's to late they focus on the power side

yeah thanks for making me paranoid lol

Had a 1966 Chevy pu and did what you did when I first got it but when I was done I hit the pedal like I was stoping with a 20,000lb trailer and blew a flex line on the front. I put new wheel cylinders on my El Camino and forgot to bleed them drove it for three years before I realized that.

Second comment just barely into the video. The same exact thing happened with my car. In the process of removing the upper ball joint on the sixty five I tapped the break hose and it instantly crushed. I'm guessing internally it was fried but externally it looks great. Better in the garage than on the road right?

I dont understand KZfaq. I have been super busy the last 2 months. I was messing with KZfaq and thought to myself for a second.Why haven't I seen anything from muscle car solutions since the sale? I wasn't even subscribed to you! I got a lot of catching up to do. Funny I just did the front disk swap this weekend...

Pump pray and gear down all you can do

Race cars don't need brakes..

You are being a little dramatic. These trucks have a dual circuit brake system. If you lose all the fluid for the front brakes, the rear will still work & vice versa. I’ve had it happen more than once on my 1969 c10. Still made it home. Even after boiling the fluid out of the rear circuit with new 1 & 3/4” headman headers once… Still made it home.
