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.

I saw Mikey914 ask if they were URO. I assumed that was because URO is a common supplier. If that was taken as being thrown under the bus, it raises a whole bunch of new questions. Why is URO on the defensive? Is there a history I'm not aware of about their rep?
From the OP pic, it just looks like the nut is the problem. Which raises the point of how important it is to have the right hardware to finish the job, not just stainless lines. |

Why is URO on the defensive? Is there a history I'm not aware of about their rep? Uro stepped on their dicks in a huge way when they announced a new part that competes directly with one of Mikey914's. Ever since then, Mikey spares no opportunity to badmouth Uro up, down and sideways, lol. As a running joke it was entertaining for awhile, but not exactly professional. Kind of like our current presidential race... |
