Brake line Extension

[Kevin]

I am getting ready to install the stainless steel brake line extensions from Rustys. Is there a preferred sequence to installing the brake lines? Should I start at the connections at the rear axle that go to the rear wheels or where the OEM rubber line comes from the frame rail? Does it even make a difference? And finally, does anyone have any tips for bleeding the system after the install. Thanks

Brake lines............

In my opinion it really does not matter which one you mount first, its the bleeding that you want to do in order. I bleed Passanger Rear, Driver's Rear, Passanger Front, to Drivers Front. If you do not have a Mity-Vac get one! They are $20-$30 for the basic kit and it is a good tool for working on vacume problems. I just threw my brake line on. I did the rear then front. Like I said it really does not matter bc you dont want to bleed anything till they are all on!

Thanks Ghost.

I saw in my FSM a reference to a DRB scan tool for bleeding the brakes on an anti-lock system. Anyone know where these are available and how much $ they are?
