Stainless Steel braided brake lines - The Ford Focus Forum

**FocusITA** · 10-24-2009, 02:44 PM

I have an '09 focus coupe SES and I wanna get rid of the brake lines I got now and replace them with stainless steel braided lines. If anyone knows where to find them and purchase them or have them custom order please let me know. It makes a huge difference even with stock rotors and calipers. Thanks for all your guys help!!

F2Focus has them listed on their site, $84.99 for all 4.

While it'll firm up your pedal a tad, I personally wouldn't call it a "huge difference".

That said, most of my vehicles are stainless-equipped.

I can't tell a difference between rubber and stainless with the DD. Pad compound makes more of a difference in feel.

Now, on the track rat, with much higher pedal pressures, definitely makes a difference.
