Just a repeat of an earlier story, but it bears repeating.

I'm WAS a repeat in-line tube customer. I bought a 5/16 fuell line for a 73 dart sport, and the line rear "bend" did not fit over the factory frame rail. I bent it slightly, and the line broke. The line material was brittle as hell. I called and sent pictures of the line and frame rail to In-line tube.

Now; the line framerail "U" was 2" on the line inside to inside. TOO Narrow. The framerail is 2.5" wide.

They basically told me: Their line is CORRECT, no one has ever complained, and that "our" lines don't break. Sorry..."YOU" are out of luck.

I'm absolutely correct on this one. I told them are you willing to lose a customer for life over replacing a line OR a refund on the line. I told tme, just make the line with a 2.5" U bend. Again, they said no, there is something wrong with my car.....all the framerails are 2". Yeah right......

They said YES. I told them I'd be a cheerleader about my story. they said "go ahead"....we don't care.

Therefore: go ANYWHERE else but in-line tube. they screwed me over.

Probably made in China. What about Fine Lines? I know they make Stainless Steel brake lines because I have some....
 
I got lines from Classic Tube...Stainless. Tim at Classic Tube has been good to me.
