Default Brake Line

I have a 2004 Sebring convertible 4 cylinder. The line from the master cylinder to the ABS Module has a leak. I am having a hard time finding a replacement. Any input would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Brake line. Part Source will make you one if your in Canada. You can bend one your self. Just buy a pipe bender kit and look at few utube videos. Very cheap and easy.
The other option is cut out the bad part of line and flare ends and push on flexible plastic brake hose cut to length. Tighten with cir clips.

Default Brake line union (to join 2 pipes)


this is from Amazon.ca. example of a Brake line union, to join two pieces of flared brake line.
First, buy BRAKE LINE FLARING tool about $25 kit, then flare ends, and join. Make sure you get right size brake line to fit Union brass fitting.
Alternative, replace entire line with rubber brake line if possible.

You can't use a rubber brake line for that length. You need steel. You can use rubber only for short lengths or you will get a spongy pedal as the rubber expands. And don't use copper tubing. It can't take the vibration and will crack.

Default Rubber brake line

That's why i suggested he cut out a small piece of the bad line and replace with short piece of rubber brake line. I was not suggesting he replace the whole line because did he not say he could not get one end off?

If replacing entire brake line, replace like with like at minimum. Here at Part Source store they will make custom one up for you while you wait. Just take old on in, and they will duplicate all the bends etc. Cheap and fast. A few feet and few bends cost about 40 to 50 $. That's if replacing entire line. The other option may be to try a stainless steel flexible brake line, they come in different lengths etc.
