Replaced most of the rear brake lines with SS last year. Car spends most of its time in a garage, and never goes to the ocean. Should I have coated the ends, that's a good bit of money to be that rusty.

You may be able to buy cad plated line nuts, cut and reflare the tubing after sliding the new nut on the line if you have enough line to do it. Just be careful with the line if you do - the stainless can be brittle if it's a cheap knockoff....
Good luck! |
