Earl's Hyperfirm Stainless Steel Front Brake Line Kit 1993-97
Set of Earl's flexible brake hoses for the 1993-'97 F-Body. They are protected against abrasion and swelling by a sheath of tightly braided stainless steel wire. The resistance to “lineswell” both improves the firmnessor “feel” of the brake pedal and reduces the time required for effective pressure to reach the brakes and begin to slow the car. Equally important in street vehicles, improvement in pedal firmness and feel make brake modulation easier and more efficient—right up to the time that the anti–lock brake system is actuated. The familiar brake pedal “thump” of anti–lock brake systems is significantly reduced. The decreased system reaction time reduces stopping distance in emergency situations—as much as 18 feet at 80 miles per hour. Assembled with Earl's Speed-Flex crimp and/or swaged permanently installed hose ends. Each hose is pressure tested to 4000 psi. made for maximum operating pressure of 2000 psi.Until Earl's developed and patented their exclusive “whip dampener,” Teflon™/stainless steel hoses were not able to pass this extremely rigorous test. The D.O.T. does not “approve” any products. It calls out specifications and test procedures that the components must meet. The manufacturers then self–certify that they are in compliance. The D.O.T. may randomly require that components be tested by an independent certified laboratory selected by the D.O.T.
$50.00 shipped in the 48 states.

I was looking and I am going to be doing front and rear lines and don't see where earl's sells a rear set alone as they do the front. So I guess I will pass as I need front & rear set and don't see rear set sold seperately.
