Brakes lines.....needs advice...

[Bob Carriere]

The time as comes to shop for brake lines for the C15a cab11.

I have disassembled what I have and compared with two other C15 and a C60.

Very particular lines with a special end that bolts throught the frame. I have identified a potential source at CarQuest.... they have a manual listing brake lines dating back to 1924..... with visual pictures of end fittings.

I will be visiting the store today with my actual lines for comparaison.

Here is the help I could use from Forum members......

...has any one out there ordered lines before and do you know the part number and make....???

...my lines are exactly 24 inches long for the front and 18 inches long for the rear line........ are these measurements correct???

Front lines have a special coil steel spring wrapped around the first 4 inches of thelines for added protection..... as anyone found exactly such lines????

Any experienced practical advice or suggestions...comments.

Note to Forum Moderator.......

...would it be possible to create a special folder to list all the after market aprts number that we know from expereince are readily avaialble for CMP.

....part description....original CMP parts number....... current maker ...source...parts number......approx... price...... etc.....

Thanks for all your help
