Rear Brake Line, Braided, 22" - Jeep TJ/LJ Wrangler
An extended rear brake line in a stainless braid. After a lift the factory line can be too short - at full axle droop it goes taut and can be torn out. One of those parts that is easy to forget during a lift and very serious when it fails.
The stainless braid has a second benefit: the line does not expand under pressure the way rubber does, so the pedal is firmer and more predictable.
Specification
- Line: braided stainless hose
- Length: 22"
- Fitment: Jeep TJ and LJ Wrangler 1997-2006
Manufacturer's note: "MetalCloak recommends that a certified automotive mechanic perform the installation if you are not experienced with this task." The brake system must be bled afterwards.
Legal note: braided brake lines carry no European type approval and an inspector may question them at a technical inspection.
Installation
Easy for an experienced person. 1-2 hours. Bleeding the system is required.
A note on vehicle age
TJs and LJs are now twenty to nearly thirty years old. Expect seized bolts and corroded frame threads when removing factory parts - soak the joints in penetrant beforehand and use anti-seize on reassembly. Several reviews of TJ parts are really about this rather than about the part.
We import this product directly from the MetalCloak factory in the USA. Please contact us for the current lead time before placing an order.

MetalCloak backs its products with a lifetime warranty on structure and coating for the original owner. The warranty does not cover accident damage, incorrect installation or owner-performed modifications. As an authorised dealer we handle the whole claim process for you.
