An interesting option to consider, but you can buy the same kit on eBay that is already pre-bent, MUCH cheaper. 

 

$149.93 after shipping for EZ-Fit 

 

Versus: 

 

$65 with free shipping on eBay. 

 

 

Sample vehicle: 2004 Suburban. 

 

 

On vehicles that require bed removal, the EZ-Fit might be the way to go.

I think you are missing the point of the kit. The pre-bent kits (Dorman, AC Delco, Inline Tube etc....) are designed to go exactly where those rusted lines are. Sounds like a good idea until you realize when the OE put those brake lines on the vehicle they had a bare frame to work with. It is easy to put those pre-bent kits on when nothing is in the way. That is not the job the mechanic is doing when they see the vehicle. To get those lines on after all the parts are on the truck the mechanic needs to take them off. This adds labor (cost) to the job. The most common parts that need to be removed are gas tanks and cv drive shafts. If those lines are rusting, how easy do you think those parts will come off the truck? Not very easily and that is why our kits have been selling like crazy.  Yes, it is true the kit is more money but you save hours of labor time. The real truth is the EZ Fit kits save you money when you factor in the labor time to get the job done. Also the EZ Fit lines are made out of nickel, copper and iron, which is DOT approved. They won't rust and are easy to work with.  All the fittings are black-oxide coated to prevent corrosion.  The pre-bent kits have steel fittings that have been known to rust. Also, shops are replacing pre-bent kits within 2 years of them being put on. This will be the last time you do the brake lines on the vehicle if you use the EZ Fit kit. We guarantee that our lines won’t rust or we will give you your money back.

. The EZ Fit kits are in a sturdy box that is 12"x12"x4" (deep). Each line is part numbered and the guide in the box shows you exactly where to put each line. Once you use the EZ Fit kits, going back to the pre-bent kits will be difficult. We currently have 65 part numbers covering the most popular GMC trucks. The next release will add 45 more bringing in the Ford, Dodge and Jeep applications.  To see if your vehicle has a kit click this link: EZ-Fit® - AGS Company AGS Company.webloc

The truth is that most vehicles will not be covered with a kit and for those jobs we recommend our NICOPP Coils and Fitting kit. If you need a flaring tool we have 3 to choose from.

 I have attached flyers that might help. Almost every WD and retailer carries our products because they are the best. 

 

Here is the Dorman installation video showing some of the parts that need to be removed: Dorman's Stainless Steel Brake Hydraulic Lines installation - YouTube.webloc

The EZ Fit lines can bend around gas tanks and drive shafts so they don't need to be removed.

Thanks!

Looks like a good/new idea for brake line replacement!

 

      Sorry, I did not realize that you were selling something. Your original post made it sound like it was a post by someone that was not affiliated with the product.

      My brother has an Escalade. The warranty has expired so he told his wife to go to the Valvoline quick lube he uses some times. They told her if her car was a 2020 and newer 6.2 engine they wouldn’t touch it. Hers is a 2019, so they did the oil change.

      2026 6.6 L5P oil cooler leaking oil at 4,000 miles

      The oil filter has NOTHING To do with oil leak. GM sources parts from 1,000's of vendors and as with anything mass produced, flaws are unavoidable.    Putting a larger oil filter will do nothing but satisfy emotions. The OEM filter is designed for the engine and perfectly capable of handling the demands on the engine. Oversize oil filter could result in reduced flow and overall lower oil pressure.

      You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling.

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.
