Mystery man ¡§J¡¨ installs a rear end in his car. He needs new metal brake lines, not the rubber section for the rear disks. He measures the length and goes to AutoZone to buy new metal hose that is already flared. He buys way longer than measured. To reduce the length he wraps the metal tubing, yes wraps, and bends it circular around the rear axel. Let¡¦s say six wraps drivers side, 3-4 passenger side.

Factory sits above the axel tube and is a set length with minimum bends on this metal tubing. Mystery man ¡§J¡¨ now has his around his rear axel going up and down with each bump in the road. Will mystery man¡¦s way cause brake failure and eventually kill him or someone else because he can not affectively stop? Also, is it necessary to have the metal rear brakes lines a specific length or can mystery man double that length and still have correct pressure ect¡K

Please respond with real answer not what a dumb a$$ or anything like that please. I am trying to help mystery man ¡§J¡¨ with this¡K By the way I am FWD drive now so it is not meƒº

 

In a closed hydraulic system, the line pressure will be the same even if there is an extra foot of tubing in the line.
