I thought this would be an easy thing to find...

Does anyone know where to get steel braided brake hoses to replace to rubber ones? Searched all the usual places and have found nothing.

I track the car often so this is one of my upgrades I like doing. Add the new lines, flush the brake fluid with Motul 600 and upgrade to carbo tech pads.

Ran the stock setup last year and the car performed awesomely. This will add a little more solid pedal feel and decrease brake fad. Was only able to do about 5 hard laps at RA before the fluid boiled.

advTHANKSance,

Plenty of other options out there. Just google c4 corvette braided brake lines

Recommend castrol SRF fluid. Make sure pads are new when starting event and swap out at 50% thickness remaining.

Thanks Mikey! I forgpt to specify I need them for my 2019 ZR1. I actually had Doug's steel braided lines on my C4 ZR-1. The C7 lines I'm not finding yet. Searched DRM for C7 lines and nothing showed up.
